She’s the First teams up with grassroots leaders to make sure girls everywhere are educated, respected, and heard.
Over the past 14 years, we’ve created transformational outcomes for 563,741 girls by working alongside 685 community organizations in 42 countries.
We teach a girl how to speak up for herself in her home, school, and community, while we teach the mentors in her life practical ways to support her agency. As a result, these girls become the first women in their families to achieve amazing milestones—and they are never the last.
