Honor the women in your life with the gift of education.
In recognition of Mother's Day, all donations in May toward our Girls’ Education program will be matched thanks to a generous donor.
Girls’ education has been recognized as the single greatest investment one can make to address global poverty. Studies continually show that when girls learn, positive outcomes follow: infant mortality drops, wages increase, and family health improves. Best of all, the lifelong benefit of education is more likely to be passed on to the next generation.
Room to Read has committed to helping girls improve their lives through the transformative power of education. This year, our supporters will help us reach 10,000 girls across 8 countries in Asia and Africa with an education through secondary school. The multiplier effect of this gift will impact women, their families and their communities for generations to come. Your investment helps ensure this.
This Mother’s Day we hope you will join us and honor the women in your lives and the many mothers in thousands of communities where we work, by supporting Room to Read’s Girls’ Education program.
E-cards and printable cards are available following your donation so you can let her know that a gift has been made in her honor, a truly special way to say “Thank you.” Even better, the impact of your gift will be doubled in the month of May by a $150,000 matching challenge fund supported by several of our committed donors.
We thank you for your partnership as we continue our work to allow equal access to quality education for thousands of girls in the developing world. One child, one family, one village at a time, we can change the world!
