Send Girls to See Captain Marvel

Donation protected
**Any additional funds raised outside of hosting the experience will go towards the non-profits Girls Inc. LA and We Have Stories to support programmatic efforts. Girls Inc. LA has a major growth initiative to expand services by reaching 2,000 new girls by 2020. We Have Stories continues its commitment to provide funding to underrepresented and marginalized storytellers and content creators.**

Everyone should have an opportunity to see women in roles they can aspire to one day be, roles that show women as strong, smart and bold. From a teacher to a fighter pilot—or a superhero. This is an opportunity to continue to empower girls to be just that.

Marvel Studios’ first female led film, "Captain Marvel” offers this type of important representation. We want to help girls from various backgrounds have the opportunity to see the film by providing tickets and renting out theaters.

Why Captain Marvel?
●     Captain Marvel is Marvel Studio’s first woman led film
●     She will be the most powerful superhero in the Marvel Cinematic Universe
●     The story adds new components to open doors for the overall Marvel Cinematic Universe
●     Unlike many female characters, her story doesn’t rely on romance and other typical woman character arcs
●     There are multiple female characters in the film that enforce diversity of women in race, careers, and talents
●     The film is co-directed and scored by women
●     The film releases on International Woman's Day during Women's History Month

We Have Stories would love your help in providing these young women from Girls Inc. LA with an opportunity to have a film experience with many elements that are female led.
