*Every dollar you give will be matched 2X by our generous matching partners to support girls’ health, education, and help keep them safe from harm.
Help girls overcome barriers to education, health and safety
A girl in motion stays in motion.
Unless something stops her.
A school fee her family can’t afford.
An empty stomach before class.
A clinic too far away—or without the medicine she needs.
Your donation removes one real barrier from a girl’s path.
And once it’s gone, she keeps moving—learning, staying healthy and safe, and claiming choices that belong to her.
Because momentum changes everything.
Give a girl a start to drive lasting change
A hot school meal changed everything for Isha.
In Sierra Leone, 10yearold Isha often arrived at school hungry—or couldn’t attend at all. With little food, she struggled to concentrate. Thanks to a school meal program, she now eats a hot, nutritious meal every day. Her focus returns. Now top of her class, her dreams are bigger too: “I want to be free from poverty.”

Ngân’s wedding was arranged. Her future wasn’t.
In Northwest Vietnam, 15yearold Ngân learns that her marriage has already been negotiated. “I was terrified and angry,” she tells her teacher. With support from her teacher and Plan staff, the conversation changes: the dowry is returned, and the wedding is stopped. Today, Ngân is in secondary school and dreams of traveling the world and studying music.

Isabelle needed safety to stay in school.
In a displacement camp in Port-au-Prince, 15yearold Isabelle lived with her family in a space with no walls and no privacy. She feared the men who watched girls at the public shower. When a safe space for children is built nearby, Isabelle gains access to education, psychological support, and protection. “School is the only way you can become someone,” she says.

People ask me: how does helping one girl change the world? It doesn't. It changes her world. And then she changes someone else's.”

Your donation goes further than you think.
Help tackle the greatest needs girls face.
Your donation doesn’t stop with the girl who receives it. It compounds - through the girl who uses it, the girls she helps, and the lives and communities they go on to change.
That’s the power of doing something when you can’t do everything. And right now, your generosity goes twice as far. Which means she can too.
