April 25 - Educated Girls

I went and watched the movie Girl Rising with Hannah.  It is a documentary about several different girls around the world and their struggles in the cultures and poverty they live in. It tells stories of amazing bravery and determination to overcome.  It tells of abuse on many levels. The one thing that has proven to break the cycle and change the future of these girls and their families is for them to get an education.  I am so thankful that we live in a country that values educating not only boys but girls as well no matter the economical situation.
