Happy #WomensHistoryMonth! To support the next generation of women, we are excited to add three new projects to the Girls Opportunity Alliance Fund today that help girls access virtual learning, support students at risk of dropping out of school, and more:
Celia, a student from our community in Guatemala, shares her inspiring story in Living the Confidence Code, a new book by @ClaireShipman and @KattyKay_ . We just added it to the Girls Opportunity Alliance reading guide—check it out here:
On the International Day of Women and Girls in Science, learn about the inspiring students of @WISERGirls_Intl—an organization from our community in Kenya that is empowering the next generation of women in #STEM.

Tomorrow is the International Day of Women and Girls in Science, so I’m celebrating the impact of women scientists around the world—including the next generation of women in #STEM like Nimon, a student from the @GirlsAlliance community in Kenya.
Watch her inspiring story. ❤️
Rebecca underwent female genital mutilation when she was just 12 years old. She was forced to drop out of school—and vowed that things would be different for her daughter.
Today on the Day of Zero Tolerance for #FGM, watch her story that she shared with us in 2019.

This brought a smile to my face—as do my memories of seeing @RoomtoRead’s work in Vietnam last year with the @GirlsAlliance. I'm so inspired by these girls and Room to Read’s efforts to ensure that the pandemic doesn’t derail their dreams of getting an education. ❤️
Quoted @RoomtoRead
#TBT to last December when the @ObamaFoundation & @girlsalliance visited our @RoomtoRead Vietnam Girls' Education Program. 1 year later, we're still so grateful for this partnership & a couple of students wanted to send some kind words to @MichelleObama:
We ❤️ this message that the girls of @RoomtoRead shared to mark the one year anniversary of our visit with @MichelleObama to their program in Vietnam. Watch it here:
As Ranjitsinh Disale was honored with 2020's Global Teacher Prize for his work to support girls’ education in India, he announced that he would share the $1 million prize with the nine other finalists working to educate children around the world. 💛

We broke the internet. For real. 🔥😱
Why? Bc women make up 26% of coders. If all the code we wrote totally vanished, the internet as we know it wouldn’t exist.
So, TL/DR let’s get more girls who code.
Check it out 👇🏾
#MissingCode #CSEdWeek
During Computer Science Education Week, @GirlsWhoCode gives us a glimpse of what the internet would look like without the code written by women around the world. Take a look—and then learn more about their work to close the gender gap in tech.
Gitanjali Rao, 15, is the first-ever TIME for Kids #KidOfTheYear. We're ready to follow her into the future. Lead the way, Gitanjali. ⭐
