In many places, girls are not as important as boys. Families who cannot afford to educate all their children often give the boys schooling while girls stay at home. And yet, educated women have a profound effect on everyone around them, often far more so than her brothers.
When a woman is educated, her family fares better. Infant mortality decreases and children are healthier and better nourished. Able to help them with their homework, an educated mother has children who are more likely to do well themselves.

World In Need actively encourages education for women and girls. We know that one girl in the classroom today can lift a whole community out of despair tomorrow.
Please pray: for the equal rights for girls and boys.
Bible reading: 1 Timothy 5:1-3
