On Saturday March 8 we celebrate International Women's Day , a day to support and uplift women and girls and recognize the important issues faced by women throughout the world. This year’s theme is #AccelerateAction, emphasizing the importance of taking swift and decisive action to achieve gender equality.
To mark this important day, we’ve asked some of the girls sponsored through our One Girl Can scholarship program about their dreams for the future. Here, meet Sharon, she is currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Information Technology and is on track to graduate this year. Hear first-hand her dreams and goals for the future. By donating to One Girl Can, you are choosing to take action and join us in our mission to help shift the needle in gender inequality.
Help us reach our goal! Donate to our International Women's Day Campaign in March to help more girls like Sharon realize their dreams!
And thanks to the generous support from the Malberry
Foundation, every dollar donated will be matched up to $10,000, so
donate today and double your impact.
One Girl Can. Make a Difference. Especially with your support!
