Because supporting girls and women is so important to Why Can't Girls?, we support organizations that aim to empower, inspire, encourage, and motivate them. Why Can't Girls? gives 10% of all monthly proceeds to the following organizations:

She's the First is a 501 organization that fights gender inequality through education. She's the First supports girls who will be the first in their families to graduate high school and trains students everywhere to be global citizens.
At She's the First, it's not about getting her into school; it's about getting her to graduation. Along the way, they equip her with all the tools she'll need to be successful – both inside and outside of her classroom.
She's the First Scholars may be good at math or biology, but they're also able to help translate a land deed for their parents, or to lead a community project to fix a well. They're local leaders, and they're building all the skills they'll need to get jobs, support their families, and change their communities.
