The Girl Effect
Jodi Mitchell
28 November 2011
An adolescent girl has the power to stop poverty before it starts. But she needs your help. She needs information, healthcare, and education. She needs laws to change, money in her pocket, and she needs her parents, her government, and the global community to see that she is valuable. Her change can’t happen without the girl champions who each bring their own superpowers to the party.
The math is simple: Girls + Girl Champions = Something Way Bigger Than All Of Us. That’s why
The Girl Effect exists. That’s their whole schtick: to work with you and advance the Girl Effect. There are 250 million adolescent girls living in poverty today. By 2030, they want 50 million of them out. It’s ambitious, but hey, that’s how world change happens.
