Hillary Clinton's Message for Women and Girl Empowerment
Give women equal rights and entire nations are more stable and secure.
--Hillary Clinton
US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton addressed thousands of women at the TEDWomen Conference on December 7-8th, 2010 in Washington D.C. She spoke of the important role women and girls play on a global scale. She also mentioned that women and girl empowerment start at the community level, which is what Girls For A Change is all about! "Let women work and they drive economic growth across all sectors. Send a girl to school even just for one year and her income dramatically increases for life, and her children are more likely to survive and her family more likely to be healthier for years to come. Give women equal rights and entire nations are more stable and secure. Deny women equal rights and the instability of nations is almost certain." We love that Hillary Clinton believes in the power of women to change to the world! Watch her powerful speech by clicking the link here!
