Our five girls on #scholarship at #LoretoSchool in #SouthSudan arrived safely and are back in their dorms. School has been closed for a year, but should be cleared to open in April. School leaders are using this time to help the girls review past lessons and prepare for new ones.

Milestone! Our girls on scholarship are headed back to the Loreto High School in South Sudan. School’s not yet open, but they’ll be reviewing past lessons to prepare for the big day.

Today is International Women’s Day and this year’s theme is 'Choose to Challenge.’ One way to challenge gender bias and inequality is to support education for girls.

Climate Change and threats to the environment are some of the most pressing issues of our time. This beautifully illustrated children’s book, The Whale Child, is written to help the next generation become aware of environmental issues and inspired to learn more.

Clean water goes hand in hand with hygiene and sanitation, and handwashing plays a big part in stopping the spread of disease. In areas where there is no running water, “tippy taps” are clever contraptions that conserve water and help keep people healthy. https://t.co/yjIBIPOYWN

Never underestimate the power of women. In Portland, OR, a ‘Wall of Moms’ stepped up to form a protective barrier between BLM demonstrators and federal officers. One protester commented, “Moms protect their families, but we need to remember that the entire world is our family.”
