Dear Milaan Champions,
I'm proud to share with you that this November, we will once again, expand out outreach to recognize Girl Icon Fellows within the state of Uttar Pradesh who are working to create a difference in their communities. Many come from government schools, like the schools that we work in within the Sitapur, Uttar Pradesh.
Working in schools with marginalized populations, we have been able to select 100 Girl Icon Fellows and radiate the effect of our work throughout the state of Uttar Pradesh India!
In many of the government schools that we work, students are often faced with heartbreaking infrastucture issues (lack of access to toilets), long and hard commutes, and a society that does not nurture them to their full potential.
In selecting fellows and working with students through outreach, we pass the power to change the community and create a greater society on to the students themselves!
To learn more about our work with selected Girl Icon Fellows in India, check out our website featuring the fellows selected out of government schools in India: GirlIcon.org.
We're honstely in awe of the impact these students are creating in their society, and we're honored to be working on the ground with such amazing changemakers!
Please do Share our work and feel free to reach out with more questions on how we are working to create a movement on the grassroots level of passionate students working to create a mindset shift towards social change!
