How we’re breaking barriers for International Day of the Girl Child #ClaimYourPlace

Canadians recognize how important girls are to our future.

That’s because Canadians believe that every girl deserves an equal start in life and the chance to grow to her full potential. That equality starts with clean water, healthy food and a safe place to live. It starts with education, support from the community and freedom from violence.

Together, we can create these conditions for girls across the globe. We can show them that gender equality is, not just possible, but necessary. Our future depends on it.

 At hEr VOLUTION, we recognize the importance of access to quality education and the support from the community as we see that there is still a big need to include girls and young women in STEM learning. Some STEM programs today are still very male-dominated and most girls decide to not enroll in those classes as they lack the confidence to be in a room full of men. It’s during the crucial years when girls and young women already see the cruel reality of the workforce before they even get their first job!

Our upcoming conference was created just for that, to show girls and young women that they too have the support and that the community that they need in order to thrive in a career of choice. Mentorship and education go hand in hand.

 

To celebrate girls and to show them that we stand behind them with full support, we want to bring in as many girls as possible at our upcoming conference. We invite you to join us. From now until October 11 (or until sold out), when you buy two (2) professional tickets at $250 you get a FREE student ticket at the conference to bring a young woman with you. Bring your mentee, your daughter, niece, student, or simply donate the ticket to us and we will bring a deserving young woman on your behalf, you choose! 

Let’s show girls how to claim their place in this world by showing them our support and that of the community!
