You can help girls access the skills and tools they’ll carry with them for the rest of their lives.

For nearly 25 years, Dora has inspired generations of girls to be leaders and to dream big. Her story is a beacon of hope, courage and empowerment, symbolizing and championing a brighter future for girls everywhere. Now, she’s on a quest to make sure every girl has access to the quality education she deserves — and she needs your help!

Because sending girls to school can change our world.

Give because she is worthy

Everyone deserves the chance to learn with confidence, dignity and the right tools to thrive.

A backpack might seem simple. But it can be the thing that keeps her in school and on the path to something powerful.

Just $25 helps provide backpacks filled with school supplies — helping girls show up prepared and proud.

Because when you give a backpack, you’re not just helping her carry books.

You’re helping her carry her future.
