Donate to Daring Girls (formally AfricAid)

In DRAWDOWN, The most Comprehensive Plan Ever Proposed to

Reverse Global Warming, by Paul Hawken, helping Women and Girls is

a top priority up there with Energy, Food, Land Use, Buildings & Cities,

Transport, Materials and more.  AS  a climate activist, I felt I was doing

everything I could to educate and share how I was learning to

help us turn the corner and embrace this major challenge of our

generation.I was inspired by this book because I was already helping

women with my coaching, and I wanted to see how I could help girls in

Africa.

In 2016 I went to Tanzania with Daring Girls, a non-profit started by a

young American woman who saw how she could help young African

women get educated and move their lives forward. She showed that with

support, aid and leadership skills these "top in their class" young African

women were able to choose to complete their secondary education and

go to college.  They were able to become doctors and engineers,

teachers and scientists.  They  were mentored by others who had

completed the program and it was just this amazing process of women

empowering women.

My trip was to climb Mt. Killimanjaro, but it was also to fund getting five

African women who were Daring Girls mentors who had completed the

Kisa Program, the after school leadership program that inspired and

empowered these young women, up that mountain with us. And we did!!

So today, you too, can offer aid to help women and girls in Africa move

their lives forward.  Daring Girls is a great way to start helping.....This

video shows more about our trip and about this amazing non-profit.   I

hope you can contribute to help these African women and join women

empowering women!
