Here are a few of my favorite projects -- join me in supporting girls and women around the world!

About

Empowering women and girls living in the poorest regions of the world is fundamental to lifting families, communities, and nations from poverty. Men play a critical role as well in enabling women and girls to access life-saving information and services. Catapult provides a unique opportunity for all of us to help women and girls everywhere have the chance to live healthy and productive lives.
