A Girl's Place is in the School

We're a young non-profit that helps girls in Cambodia, Thailand, Vietnam, and South Africa get into school.

"Giving the poorest girls in our world access to schools and education will have incalculable benefits to us all.

The fight against human trafficking, high infant mortality, extremist violence, poor sanitation, and crippling generational poverty is deeply linked to getting girls into school. The more education a girl has, the more likely she is to keep herself and her children healthy, to bring additional food and clean water into her community, to participate in sustainable agriculture, and to wisely advocate for a peaceful, just community.
