It’s dangerous to be a girl….

Every 3 seconds, a girl is forced to marry. Every year, nearly 1 million girls and women die due to lack of clean water, and 60 million girls are sexually assaulted on their way to school. 

Every day girls are forced to sacrifice their futures. But the money you fundraise, will play a pivotal role in defending the rights and safety of every girl. 

We are encouraging everyone who joins Plan International Ireland in the Women’s Mini Marathon to fundraise a minimum of 100 euros to help give girls a better future.
