4. (international) girls denied education 

To support this cause, we are partnering with the Malala Fund, an international charitable organization founded by Nobel Peace Prize winner Malala Yousafzai that advocates — at local, national and international levels — for resources and policy changes needed to ensure all girls complete 12 years of school, especially in areas where girls have been denied their right to education.
