One reason we made Girl Rising is because of the 66 million girls around the world who can only dream of getting an education. But, as we traveled the globe making the film, we were struck by the powerful energy of the girls who are in school -- their enthusiasm, their spirit, their sheer joy. The pride they take - in their uniforms, in their schools, in their studies -- is infectious, and you won't be able to resist the rhythm of their feet as they walk to school and march into a better future. It's time to join the march - sign up to host an International Day of the Girl event! October 11th. www.girlrising.com/idg Music: "Ain' Gonna Let Nobody Turn Me 'Round," performed by Sweet Honey In The Rock
