Save a Girl, Change the World started as a thought or vision as I watched as episode of Oprah that featured Nicholos Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn the authors of the book Half the Sky. I felt inspired and empowered. At the same time, small and helpless. That evening I ordered the book Half the Sky. I knew before opening the cover I would be captured and transformed. But how can I, one person, make a difference? A small voice keeps telling me to just – “try”. So with that thought and belief, I am forging ahead. Maybe someone will listen or read….maybe they won’t. Regardless, I am going to “try”. What a better time than the beginning of the New Year, 2010! Knowledge is power.
The intention of Save a Girl, Change the World is to “create awareness to cultivate change”. Social change has to come from a grassroots effort. Maybe people, including myself, don’t know where to begin. We want to help, get involved, make a DIFFERENCE. We will feature different organizations, research, and additional grassroots efforts.
