Thank you to Delia Friel, our very own GirlsUP Teen Board member as well as one of our UN Teen Advisory Board representatives and her mom for bringing us a special screening of Girl Rising. This film tells the story of nine girls from around the world who face and overcome unbelievable obstacles on the path toward getting an education. The film was created by 10X10, a global campaign to educate and empower girls around the world and a partner organization of the UN Foundation for Girls. Each girl’s story is narrated by remarkable actresses including Meryl Streep, Kerry Washington, Anne Hathaway and Alicia Keys to name a few.
