Women’s Education

In many nations around the world, and even here in the United States, girls have had their right to education taken out from under them. In many developing countries, parents believe sending their daughters to school is unsafe.  And in many cases, it is. There are also people that do not believe girls should go to school at all. In some places women are forced to have children get married at young ages; they are then are expelled from their schools. We want to help make school available to girls and young women around the world.
