<div><strong>'A Girl Can Touch The Sky' </strong>is a feature-length documentary raising awareness about the challenges, girls all over India, face accessing education.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you have made it to this page, you have most likely seen the film on the BIG SCREEN at one of our recent screenings.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you feel moved to do so, <strong>PLEASE DONATE</strong> to help us change the lives of girls like Anuradha and Rashmi.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>What will your funds support?</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>An amazing grassroots education charity started by Anuradha (our lead contributor in the film). <strong>SHRI RADHA MADHAV SARVJAN WELFARE TRUST</strong> provides education and employability skills to the village girls in the rural area where Anuradha lives. She needs to raise £7000 to complete the building of the classrooms and to run the centre.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>EQUAL COMMUNITY FOUNDATION</strong> - is a bold and innovative charity whose mission is to ensure that every boy in India is gender equitable. They need to raise £8000 to extend their program to reach more young men.

</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Anuradha</strong> had to fight for her life as her father locked her up so she couldn't run away before her forced marriage at 13 years old.

<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Rashmi</strong> had to fight to pursue her education when her father set the date for her and her 3 sisters to get married at the same time. She was only 14 years old. 
</div>
<div><br />

<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Impact to date:</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The film has been viewed by over 4000 households, selected for 11 International Film Festivals, and won awards including being nominated for a Royal Television Society award.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>All this has been to draw attention to the issue of gender discrimination in education for girls in India and around the world.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>To date, we have raised and <strong>donated</strong> <strong>£19,278.79</strong> to the charities featured in the film.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>These charities are doing amazing work to create a world where every girl has the opportunity to pursue her education and is supported by her family and community to do so.
</div>
<div><br />

<div><br />
</div>
<div>This photo shows Shireen, who shares in the film that she wants to become a police officer so she can arrest people who force child marriage on girls, cutting their education short.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Some statistics:</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In India, there are 12 million girls born every year. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>3 million don't make it to their first birthday and 1 million don't make it to their fifteenth birthday.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Girls are less likely to receive immunization, nutrition or medical treatment.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The fear of sexual violence is a contributing factor to 47% of girls being married under the legal age of 18 which almost always cuts their education and any dreams they had for themselves short.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Very little is being done to engage men in the sort of transformational work needed to create a safer world for women and girls and to redefine masculinity at a time when it is needed most.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Message from the film's director, Ravinol Chambers:</strong>

</div>
<div><em>"I met some amazing young women in the course of making the film, many of whose stories you will see on the big screen. Incredibly brave, confident, powerful young women stepping up as leaders and role models for others to follow, so that no girl is left behind.</em>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><em>I also met some great men and boys who are trying to help create a fairer world for women and girls. We need both men and women to be part of a collective solution if we want to change 'the way it has always been."</em>
</div>

</div>
<div>Thank you for your support.
