Help for Girls in Crisis
Thank you for visiting my fund-raising page!
This is a special opportunity to help children and families around the world who are in desperate need. Please join with me by giving gifts that bring life-changing help and hope. Your support will demonstrate compassion and offer hope to a poor child, family, or village.
Did you know...?
- In sub-Saharan Africa 32% of girls have never attended school—34% in the Middle East and Northern Africa. Worldwide, 16% of girls miss out on school completely.
- More than 121 million primary school-age children do not attend school; the majority of them are girls.
- More than 1 billion children suffer a lack of proper nutrition, safe drinking water, decent sanitation facilities, health-care services, shelter, education and information.
World Vision, a Christian relief and development organization, works in nearly 100 countries to help children and families tackle the causes of poverty. With the partnership of people like us, they are making a real and lasting difference for millions of people -- and that’s why I wholeheartedly support their work.
When you donate to the Girls in Crisis Fund, your gift will help the following:
You can help protect a girl from abuse, child labor, sex trafficking, early marriage, and other frequent obstacles against girls born in cultures where females may be poorly valued. Your gift will allow trained staff -- familiar with the needs and various cultures -- to give nurturing support to girls through training, education, counseling, and advocacy on girls’ behalf.
This is a wonderful way to express your support for the world’s poor. Thanks for joining me in this effort.
What have you got to lose? Nothing! Have you been feeling like you want to do more for the world? This is your chance. It'll give you the warm fuzzies, and help people that need it. I started this fundraiser in honor of the women in my life, and women and girls everywhere that have suffered abuses and injustices, or know someone who has.
