Live High on Life™ celebrates International Women's Day and supports Girl Up for the Project Twelve Foundation of the Month!

Hey everyone!

Were you one of the many people who celebrated the 100th Anniversary of International Women's Day on March 8th? If you dont already know about it, I'll give you a little bit of info. The idea for International Women's Day came from a woman named Clara Zetkin, who was a leader of the 'Women's Office' for the Social Democratic Party in Germany. She wanted to designate a day where, in every country, women would be celebrated. During a conference with 100 women from 17 countries, the idea for International Women's Day was something that everyone there agreed upon, and the very first official IWD was honored in 1911. On March 8th, we celebrated the 100th Anniversary, which is very exciting and empowering!

To help honor International Women's Day and all the girls in the world, Live High on Life is proud to support Girl Up for the month of March. "Girl Up, a campaign of the United Nations Foundation, gives American girls the opportunity to channel their energy and compassion to raise awareness and funds for programs of the United Nations that help some of the world’s hardest-to-reach adolescent girls. Through Girl Up'’s support, girls have the opportunity to become educated, healthy, safe, counted, and positioned to be the next generation of leaders." -Quoted text from GirlUp.org.

There are several ways to get involved with this incredible foundation. One way that everyone can help is by watching the video below and sharing it with friends to spread the word about Girl Up.

You can also "Give a High Five," which consists of five steps to take to help girls in developing countries:

1. Take 5 minutes to learn about the issues impacting girls in developing countries.
2.Share 5 facts about girls and the campaign through social networking
3. Send the Girlafesto (an awesome poem) to 5 friends and family members, asking them to help support Girl Up
4. Donate $5 or more to provide school supplies, health check-ups, and more
5. Host a Girl Up fundraiser in your school, club, or community

So what are you waiting for?! Get involved and make a difference :)
