We’ve found that the most effective way to help a girl share her story is through the lens of a camera! Due to its visual element, video-and-photograph-focused storytelling is more intimate and lets the viewer into their world through their eyes, creating a connection like no other with donors.
In addition to helping girls share their experiences with the world, our workshops teach them a brand new skill that they may have never interacted with, arming them with new skills and a new perspective.
In a male-dominated field, we believe that we need to make space for girls’ stories and a camera can be all a girl needs to make her voice heard.

With the help of donors like you and partner organizations across the globe, participants have access to a range of cameras, including phones, point-and-shoot, DSLRs, and more.
Our workshops teach the basics of digital storytelling and focus on storyboarding visual composition and confidence building.
