Our girls have immense potential to make our country proud – and yet, there are millions of little girls in India who do not get proper education, nutrition, or healthcare, and who are vulnerable to exploitation. One in every three child brides in the world is from India, and almost 13 million girls work to support their families. Not only are they forced to drop out of school, but they are also deprived of opportunities to achieve their true potential.
According to a McKinsey Gender Parity study, if all girls complete their education and participate in the workforce, India could add a whopping $770 billion to the country’s GDP by 2025! What more reason do we need to believe that donating to sponsor girls’ education today is the way to a brighter future?
