We care too

WE CARE TOO FOR THE POWER OF GIRLHOOD

DID YOU KNOW????

THAT GLOBALLY, 66 MILLION GIRLS AND YOUNG WOMEN DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO SCHOOL AND AN EDUCATION? THAT THERE ARE 33 MILLION FEWER GIRLS CURRENTLY IN SCHOOL THAN THEIR MALE COUNTERPARTS? THAT 88% OF ALL HUMAN TRAFFICKING VICTIMS IN THE WORLD TODAY ARE FEMALE? AND THAT 150 MILLION GIRLS ARE VICTIMS OF SEXUAL VIOLENCE?

NOW, YOU KNOW. IN ADDITION, 58% OF GIRLS LIVE IN A SINGLE PARENT HOUSEHOLD WHERE THE MOTHER IS THE PRIMARY CARE GIVER AND ONLY 25% OF THE GIRLS LIVE IN A HOUSEHOLD WHERE THE FATHER IS THE PRIMARY CARE GIVER. IN THE 21ST CENTURY WE CAN DO BETTER. WE CAN COME TOGETHER AS MEN IN A GLOBAL EFFORT OF OUTREACH AND AWARENESS TO STOP THE DEGRADATION AND DAMAGE BEING DONE TO OUR SISTERS AND DAUGHERS.

THESE YOUNG LADIES REPRESENT THE FUTURE OF AMERICA. THEY ARE THE CONVEYENCE OF DREAMS AND ASPIRATIONS YET TO BE FULFILLED. ALL MEN NEED TO RISE AND MAKE THEMSELVES AWARE. THAT IT IS OUR COLLECTIVE RESPONSIBILITY PLACE THE FUTURE QUEENS OF OUR SOCIETY ON AN EARLY PEDESTAL. LET US BUILD IN THEM THE POWER AND STRENGTH, TO BE AND ACHIEVE AND BECOME THE GREATEST SUMMATION OF THEIR DREAMS.

CELEBRATE THE DAY OF THE GIRL BY MENTORING AND INSPIRING YOUR DAUGHTER, YOUR NEICE, YOUR GRANDDAUGHTER, ETC. TO SHOOT FOR THE STARS AND BECOME ALL THAT THEY ARE MEANT TO BE. FOR THE POWER OF GIRLHOOD AND THE DAY OF THE GIRL… W.B. BURKHOLDER
