Women’s History Month is a time to remember the accomplishments, struggles, and lives of women. It is during this month that we are reminded of how women have taken risks and fought for women’s rights. We are reminded of how women have made incredible discoveries, but may not have received recognition for their work initially. We are reminded of how women are inspirations to everyone. There have been plenty of social media campaigns devoted to commemorating this month and we picked out a few of our favorites.
For #WomensHistoryMonth, we asked you to tell us about how you are empowering young women in your community. Here are some of the most inspiring stories we heard from all over the world: https://t.co/4jRIcYuRSZ pic.twitter.com/ARGP1hQkvl
