Tired of fruitcakes and fuzzy slippers? A donation in a friend's name is a wonderful way to show you care. Wish lists and registries ensure the perfect gift, which you can share with a printed greeting card.
What was your favorite subject in school? Math? History? Unfortunately, about 300 million children in the world don’t have the opportunity to attend school at all. Two-thirds of these children are girls. This lack of education can be life threatening for girls in countries where HIV/AIDS is widespread. Educated girls are more likely to stay healthy and raise healthy families.
The Gift
Your gift will go toward programs that target girls’ education in the most vulnerable communities. Your gift can provide a girl with a school uniform, textbooks, and school supplies for one year of schooling. Together, we can bring up a new generation of girls who will become educated, confident women.
