On International Women's Day, Sirjana, an alum of one of our partner programs, and girls from our partner The Small World took over Kathmandu, Nepal to raise awareness about gender equality in their country. Sirjana wants us to join in!

“This isn’t just a run; it’s a statement, a stride towards equality and solidarity. It’s more than just a race—it’s a celebration of diversity, equality, strength, and unity.”

Now, it's our turn!

We're inviting the entire STF community to join us in a virtual Race for Gender Equality 5K!

She's the First has always been a movement. Let's get moving!

Proceeds from the Race for Gender Equality 5K will support our Partner Coalition, increasing girls access to education and mentorship programs in 10 countries!

5K's not your thing?

You can still donate and share your vision! With your help, we can hit our goal! Every donation helps create a world where every girl can choose her own future!

She's the First, Never the Last 5K
