Celebrate a woman you love this International Women's Day by giving a gift to girl's education in her name!

Happy International Women's Day! Today, Circle of Women is celebrating the amazing achievements of women throughout the world. With your help, Circle of Women is hoping to support the next generation of impactful women by providing a secondary-level education to girls across the globe. Educating young girls goes a long way, and prepares them to become impactful leaders and citizens in their communities and beyond.

Around the world, only 42% of countries have achieved gender parity in lower secondary education, and only 24% in upper secondary education. Circle of Women, a 501(c)3 nonprofit, was founded in 2006 by 3 young, driven, Harvard undergrads who saw this disparity and wanted to make a change. For the past 15 years, undergraduate and high school-aged women across the country have come together to change the lives of thousands of women across the globe. As of today, Circle has planned, fundraised for, and completed 13 international projects in: Afghanistan, India, Kenya, Malawi, Pakistan, Tanzania, Peru, Uganda, Guatemala, and Haiti.

For this International Women’s Day, please consider the impact of an important woman in your life. Think about your mother or grandmother who has given you endless support, or the professor or coach who pushed you to be your best self. In order to honor the importance of this special woman in your life, we are asking you to make a donation in their honor. Donations of any amount make a difference: in the past, for example, one $15 donation purchased all lamps for a computer lab in Sacred Valley, Peru, five chalkboards in Jabergali, Pakistan, or windows for a dormitory in Wema, Kenya. In addition, help spread the word about this initiative by challenging three other women to join you in donating. This International Women’s Day, we need your support to make a difference in supporting girls’ education and the next generation of change-makers and leaders.
