Helping Girls Find Their Voice

The following is a post sponsored by Yahoo! Every time someone clicks here to make Yahoo! their homepage, they’re showing their support for Girls For A Change.
I was selected for this opportunity by Clever Girls Collective, which endorses Blog With Integrity, as I do.

…………………….

Somewhere deep within the heart of every girl is a voice that is longing to be heard; a voice that has the power to effect change in our world.

Raising my daughters to become confident young women who embrace and celebrate their diversity, are comfortable in their own skin and aspire to be their very best is just a fraction of my responsibilities as a mother of three young girls.

It’s my duty to guide my daughters in the right direction; to lay a strong foundation of self-respect and to instill morals and values within them and the conviction to stand up for what’s right.

Like most mothers, I want the very best for my girls. I want them to know and value their worth. I want them to embrace and celebrate that which sets them apart. I want them to be unafraid. I want them to dream.

I want my daughters to find their voice. And I want them to use that voice to empower others and effect change in our world, big or small.

I want the girls of our world to rise up and use their voices to effect change in their schools and communities and corners of our world.

Girls For a Change wants the same. Over the last nine years, Girls For a Change been in the business of inspiring girls to have the voice, ability and problem solving capacity to speak up, be decision makers, create visionary change and realize their full potential.
