I have never been the type of person to have a three day long celebration of me. For me, birthdays are a time of reflection and growth

. Today on my birthday, I would like to pay it forward for others and give them that opportunity.

I’m asking you to join a movement called #GirlUp! “Girl Up is an innovative campaign of the United Nations Foundation. We give American girls the opportunity to become global leaders.”

Donate. Tweet. Share. Be The Change. #GirlUp http://bit.ly/1kaHv3K @UN_Women
