Girls’ Globe is a network of passionate people and organizations working to improve the lives of women and girls, and through it, change the world.
They have asked CleanBirth.org to be a part of this amazing network. Here is my first post about the woman who most inspires my work in Laos: Carol Perks of Save the Children.

“Good to hear from you and congratulations on trying to help the situation for women and children in Salavan. I’d be happy to help you in any way that I can…”
