How will my donation help?
When girls complete their education, the nation prospers.
Join us for ‘Walk to EmpowHer’ – an initiative by CRY to raise awareness regarding the importance of girls’ completing their secondary education.
Education is a basic right, and yet many girls in India are denied it due to social stigma and economic pressures they face on daily basis. only 3 out of 5 girls are enrolled in higher secondary education (11th and 12th standards) (as per UDISE+ 2021-22 data). But did you know that when a girl stays in school, she not only delays marriage, but also builds her career, and improves her families’ health, benefiting our nation as well and you can be an active part of the solution.
JOIN THE MOVEMENT – The Power of Your Voice and Participation
As a walker by joining CRY’s (Child Rights and You) “Walk to EmpowHER,” YOU take a stand for girls’ education, where each step YOU take, not only supports her right to complete education, but also inspires other individuals to do the same. Where your small participation can spark a lasting change by becoming an active part of the solution, helping create a future where both girls and boys have equal opportunities to thrive.
