As YGB supporter, you are a critical part of this global movement.

The International Day of the Girl Child addresses the challenges that girls face, promotes their empowerment, and highlights the imperative to fulfill the human rights of every girl child. Up to 110 million girls worldwide are at risk of being forced into marriage while they are still children due to gender discrimination and the lingering  devastation effects of COVID-19 pandemic.

GIRLS ARE UNSTOPAPABLE.  

There are more than 1.1 billion girls in the world today who are poised to take on the future. Every day, girls are breaking boundaries and barriers, tackling issues like child marriage, education inequality, violence, climate justice, and inequitable access to healthcare.

According to the Gender Gap Report 2023, India ranks 127th out of 146 countries in terms of gender parity. Since 2010, YGB has focused on empowering underserved girls who fall into this vast gender gap,  with economic and educational opportunities in marginalized communities throughout Karnataka and West Bengal.

THE IMPACT IS REAL.

With your support, hundreds of young girls have already graduated with college degrees. They are becoming leaders and role models in their communities as well as helping their families with their income. We are happy and hopeful that the impact of our work is intergenerational.  Empowered girls are leading deep and lasting change in the forgotten corners of India.
