Sometimes sharing is hard. But, sharing is nice. Sharing is for everyone. This act of kindness is best learned around the age of three and it stays with us the rest of our lives. Our Pay It Forward hope is that you share today. Below is a list of wonderful resources for Girls and Women and we would love for you to pay it forward by sharing it with others or visiting one of these sites and sharing thanks for the important work they're doing to empower so many of us. These sites are always listed HERE on our website, but we felt it important to share them here with you. We're going to run this post through the weekend, so feel free to refer friends or come back a peruse some of these sites. We're sharing and we hope you do too. Additionally, if you know of a wonderful resource for girls and women that is not listed, please leave us a comment with the name of the organization below. We're always looking for more organizations to share with others. And in whatever other capacities you can, share. Share your smile. Share your meal. Share the road. Share love.
