Girls are the Answer... And so are YOU

Although girls are often the poorest of the poor, it's proven that investing in girls is key to eliminating poverty. Empower a girl and she'll change the world.

When a girl is educated, nourished and protected, she shares her knowledge and skills with her family and community, and can forever change the future of a nation. It's that powerful!

That's why Plan Canada's Because I am a Girl initiative seeks to unleash the power of Canadian girls, women -- and everyone who matters to them -- to claim a brighter, safer future for girls in the developing world.

Take the pledge to support:

* Girls' right to be educated.
* Girls' right to eat.
* Girls' right to be safe.
* Girls' human rights.

It only takes ONE girl to change the world. Be the ONE to help her do it.
