About The Event
As we start a new year, it is important to share stories of inspiration and opportunity for change.
We are pleased to invite you to a virtual event on January 22:
The mission: In Afghanistan, a country which ranks 153rd of total 189 countries in the UN Development Programme Gender Inequality Index, Ascend quite literally helps women climb to new heights to become leaders in their communities and gain access to opportunities. As the program grows, it is building a movement of girls and women who help and inspire one another. Alumnae have set up their own hiking groups, gained employment in gender equality and advocacy organizations, and taken prominent positions in local communities, with a large proportion opting to pursue higher education.
The Ascend program
During this fundraising event, we will share the Ascend story and update you on our ambitious goals to create a climbing center in Kabul.…
