(Prompt 7)
The goal of my genius project is to learn more about why it is important for girls to be educated around the world, and to help advocate for girl's rights by raising awareness amongst students in CHS and people in our community about these issues, and fundraising for specific causes. I will do this through a club I started in September called Girls Learn International. It's a national organization started by the Feminist Majority Foundation and it has over 200 chapters. We already have over 40 members and in our meetings we plan events, such as the t-shirt making and photo campaign we held on the UN Day of the Girl, as well as listen to and discuss lessons about topics like human trafficking and health and sanitation. We also go on field trips like going to the screening of the Malala movie and the TEDx conference. I want my genius project to look like this club as it evolves over the school year.
