OUR IMPACT
In India, a boy with a school-wide reputation for bullying girls sat and listened as a girl taught him math. His new way of thinking lasted long after the program ended.
According to the World Bank, gender inequality is the single greatest barrier to national economic development. Around the world, 600 million girls and young women between the ages of 10 and 24 face discrimination, marginalization, and violence. Unequal access to education. No seat at the table. No path to leadership.
And by age 14, girls have already lost 30% of their self-confidence.
In our Uganda workshop, girls gained 69% in self-confidence.
That’s the gap we close.
PICTURE EQUALITY.
On the Pine Ridge Reservation, students from Oglala Lakota Nation layered portraits onto landscapes, depicting the connection Lakota people have to their land through a single frame.
In Uganda, a father admitted he only let his daughter participate because she begged. After watching her speak publicly for the first time at the local gallery show, he told every parent to let their kids join our program.
In Guatemala, a workshop about machismo culture unexpectedly surfaced homophobia. Girls and boys talked it through together and found their own path forward. Nobody wanted it as part of their culture.
