SHE 👧🏽:
✔️earns more income
✔️has fewer children
✔️provides better health care for her family
✔️is more likely to educate her children
Such are the multiplier effects of girls' education 🙌! RT and promote widely!
When a girl is educated, 👩🎓 she is more likely to educate her child 👧.
That child will then educate their children and so on... 👩👧👩👧👩👧

In Côte d'Ivoire, a mother has the opportunity to go back to school. She attends classes three times a week and learns how to read, write and count.👏👏
Education provides a second chance.
School is a place to learn to read, solve math problems, and make friends.
School is a place where children can find opportunity for a better tomorrow.
School is a place of hope.
