Girl Up!

So I was looking around youtube, and I found a video of Victoria Justice (Victoria from Victorious) Talking about this program called, “Girl up”

Girl Up

Girl Up is about inspiring other girls in developing countries to follow their dreams. Whether that be to be a doctor, a lawyer, or a pilot, they are most of the time unable to follow their dreams. Whether that be from low levels of enrollment in school, high levels of child marriage and way too many girls facing health risks from pregnancy and early child birth.  So this charity makes money, to have these girls that cannot afford their education.

I’ve been trying to watch videos more about this girl up charity, and one of them was about a conference. One of the main supporters, is actually a man. And he was saying that in England, his grandma did not want to have an arranged marriage, that she was forced to. So she walked out, and left them. And her family never talked to her again, they took her out of their lives. And also, she was the first women to drive a car, because back then only guys were driving.

I found this video on youtube, and it’s one of my favorites. It pretty much sums up what I’m trying to say, here. And you should visit www.girlup.org.
