CARE is an organization you should know about.
Dr. Helene Gayle, CEO and president of CARE, discusses the challenges women and girls face in our world today.
- Women do 2/3 of the world’s work, but earn only 10% of the world’s income.
- Women produce half of the world’s food, yet own only 1% of its land.
- 2/3 of the people who can’t read or write are women.
Ending poverty means eliminating gender discrimination and empowering women and girls to realize their potential. Find out more about CARE’s work by visiting http://www.care.org
