Change always starts with a girl.

Collaboration gets me excited.

I'm a positive person who likes to see things get done.

You probably don't think twice about going into your kitchen and turning a few knobs to prepare a meal for yourself and your family on an electric or gas range. But for nearly 3 billion people in developing countries who depend on solid fuels to cook their food, the simple act of cooking results in 4 million premature deaths every year from exposure to toxic smoke.

Gender data is important. If girls don’t have a birth certificate, how do we know how many are marrying as children?

Change always starts with a girl.

Global is a unifying bond for people. Once they get outside their own heads and their own communities and see themselves in a broader framework, it really changes their sense of what they can get done. It all adds up for us.
