This quote and this idea in general, investing in women and girls, is so important to me and for our global society. By investing in women we invest in the nurturers of our society; we invest in our educators, healers, and ultimately the people who have the capability to enhance all human life the most. Women not only must be empowered from our societal infrastructure but they must also feel empowered to do what it that they really want to do in life. I recently came across an amazing project called "ellevate." Here is their mission statement:
We believe that when ambitious professional women get more opportunity it ultimately benefits everyone, and leads to a more equal world. We’re committed to giving these ambitious professional women the community they need to take the next step in their careers — whatever that means to each of them.
This is a powerful community that is looking to only expand their ability to empower women by empowering each other. If you are a professional or a college woman, I would highly recommend visiting their site and looking into what they could do for you. By improving your personal and your professional life, you will be able to achieve happiness and satisfaction, and the team at ellevate will help you do exactly that.
