Honor Women’s History Month by Giving to Jolkona’s Give2Girls Campaign!

“Women hold up half the sky” — Chinese Proverb

As wedding bloggers, we get to experience the happiness of women on the biggest day of their lives. But for many other women and young girls, just getting through everyday life is a struggle. Which is why The Sari-Clad Bride team is extremely honored and thrilled to present our readers and partners with an amazing opportunity to change the lives of women and girls around the world during Women’s History Month!

Our friends over at The Jolkona Foundation have teamed up with Women@Google and The CRAVE Company to launch their 2nd annual Give2Girls campaign. From March 1-31st, these generous sponsors will match any gifts made to the Give2Girls campaign, dollar for dollar, up to $6,000!

Honor the women in your life (or yourself!) by making a donation to the Jolkona Foundation’s Give2Girls campaign. Choose from over ten different projects. Here are some examples of donation impacts:

$250 to provide a safe birth & prenatal care in India
$25 to support girls education in Tanzania
$40 to provide education to girls in Afghanistan
$25 to support homeless women in Seattle
$125 to provide business training to Peruvian Women
$64 to train two women farmers in Kenya
$15 to provide healthcare to Nepalese Women

Give a gift of any denomination to the Give2Girls campaign today and earn yourself some blessings and good wishes towards a better, brighter, and happier future.

Jolkona.org is a new non-profit that leverages technology to connect donors to innovative micro-giving opportunities in your community and around the globe. Their goal is to inspire more people to give by showing donors that small donations make a real impact. For each project you donate to, Jolkona will send 100% to the partner non-profits AND the non-profits will then upload feedback to your account to report back exactly how your donation made an impact.

“March is Women’s History Month, a time to celebrate women who struggled to unlock doors so that women today can open the doors and improve their lives. Experts now agree that helping to empower and educate women is an effective strategy to help fight poverty around that world. Investing in an educated, healthy, skilled, and empowered girl today means she will have the tools to reinvest back into her family, her community, and our world….” (Jolkona)
