Taking a Stand

I have taken a stand against injustice against women and girls. In many developing countries women and girls are not given the same rights as men, especially when it comes to education. Girls need an education so they do not fall into the downward spiral of human trafficking, poverty, child marriage, disease, and hunger. There is only one way to end these issues, which is giving girls education. Myself, and the club I am a part of Girls Learn International, fight for equal women’s rights, and girls education.

Words to Live By

What's the best advice that you have ever recieved or given?

The best advice that I have ever received and given is to be you. I know it is very cliché, but I think people have lost sight of their own personality, and their special qualities. It's no fun to pretend to be something or someone that you are not. Embracing our own quirks, flaws, and weird qualities make us special and interesting. I went through a time in my life where I wasn't being myself, and I was trying to be a certain way to fit in, and I am so happy that I learned that is not how I want to live my life. I am so much happier in my own skin, and I embrace every weird quality that I have. Being yourself if the best advice to give, receive and most importantly, follow.
