We see the possibility of reforming for the whole nation.
A 15-year-old girl from a rural community in Pakistan. Hadika’s personal experience has inspired her to travel around and speak to the different stakeholders to bring an end to the cruel custom of child marriage.
What we are focusing…
In Taiwan and other regions in Asia, the Garden of Hope Foundation (GOH) has noticed four major issues that girls commonly deal with:
1. Violations of bodily integrity
2. Denial of right to health
3. Unequal right to education
4. Gender stereotypes and body image
Why we need you to support GOH’s girl empowerment programs?
Capacity building from GOH & Taiwan: Taiwan and GOH are at the forefront of gender equality in Asia. Through your help, we can make 9 Asian countries’ voices heard and promote social concept reform.
Promote from its roots: We recognized the importance of the power from local community to their own people, and can lead the movement by passing on its experiences and help Asian girls make use of their power to influence.
Your donation will go to:
1. Advocacy programs:For girl empowerment and equal gender rights.
2. Series of events: The Formosa Daughters Festival and more.
3. Capacity building: For Asian organizations providing services to disadvantaged girls.
