OUR MAIN CAMPAIGNS

 

 

 

PREVENTING EARLY MARRIAGE

650 million girls and women alive today were married before their 18th birthday. 115 million boys and men were married before age 18. Progress needs to be 12 times faster to eliminate the issue by 2030. Join us in educating communities in Vietnam.

CHILDREN ARE NOT BRIDES

 

 

HUMANITARIAN AID IN ETHIOPIA

For more than four months now, an armed conflict has been unfolding in the region of Tigray, northern Ethiopia. The fighting has killed thousands and displaced over 2 million people so far. Hundreds of thousands could starve.

EMERGENCY RELIEF

 

 

 

REMODELING SCHOOLS

We raised over $42,500 for the Mirpur School in Bangladesh. Now, we are helping La Palangana Primary School in Guatemala, which has broken desks, rooms made of iron sheets and no electricity.

SAVE A SCHOOL

 

 

KEEPING GIRLS IN CLASS

Investing in hygiene education and menstrual products for girls living in poverty is the support they need to stay in school. Help them gain access to sanitary pads so that their period doesn't stop them for reaching their full potential.

BETTER LIFE FOR GIRLS

 

 

GIVING ACCESS TO WATER

Providing clean water sources helps keep families healthy and prevents people from walking long distances to find a water point. We have been building wells in Zambia in communities that suffer from contaminated water.
