Her Future Is On The Line

Your gift will help a girl feel safe, stay in school and decide her own future!

We heard one troubling thing from girls around the world, each time we asked why they were not in school…

“Because I am a girl!”

Millions of girls face hardship simply because they are girls. From child marriage and gender-based violence to unequal access to education and economic opportunity, these challenges threaten a girl’s ability to reach her full potential. We want to change that. Your support will help every girl who has been told no and create lasting change.

Your gift of any amount will make an impact:

$50 fills two new backpacks with the school supplies girls need
$75 gives five girls hygiene essentials like pads and shampoo
$185 provides clean drinking water to a girl traveling miles to a well
$340 covers a semester of fees for a girl at risk of leaving school
