Give 40 girls in Cambodia the chance to go to school

Can you imagine your life without strong, powerful women leaders and mentors? Neither can we. That's why we're asking for your help. This summer, honor the important women – mothers, aunts, grandmothers, sisters, friends – in your life by helping a group of 40 girls in Cambodia go to school.

Our Girls' Education program provides girls with school supplies, uniforms, transportation, tutoring and mentoring. These factors help ensure the girls enroll in, stay in, and graduate from secondary school with the skills and knowledge they need to navigate life's toughest decisions.

Why does Girls’ Education matter? For every year a girl stays in school above the average, her future wages increase by as much as 20%, infant mortality rates drop by up to 10%, her likelihood of HIV infection drops, and she is more likely to make sure her own children are vaccinated, well-nourished and educated. And that’s just the beginning…

Please join us in giving 40 girls the lifelong gift of education; after all, it's the only thing that can never be taken away from you.
