was an international campaign addressing gender discrimination. Its goal was to promote the rights of girls and bring millions of girls out of poverty around the world, promoting projects to improve opportunities for girls in education, health care, family planning, legal rights, and other areas. In September 2018, the organization released "The State of Gender Equality for U.S. Adolescents". The report was covered by several media outlets including the New York Times, Washington Post, and Forbes. It reported how adolescents in the U.S. think about gender equality and what shapes those views. The report was named Media Relations campaign of the year by PR Daily. In August 2019, the organization announced the largest individual gift in the organizations history. The gift will fund a program model called GirlEngage, which aims to challenge social and gender norms, send more girls to school and work to keep girls safe in their communities.
