March 8th marked the International Women’s Day and Jada Pinkett Smith posted this message on her facebook fan page: None of us can move forward if half of us are held back. Join us, Beyoncé Knowles-Carter, Salma Hayek Pinault, and Frida Giannini by liking Chime for Change: bit.ly/LikeChime. We are in Women’s Month and today is International Women’s Day. Here is a great organization I am a part of and you should be too!

Gucci launches a new global campaign for girls and women’s empowerment at TED2013, led by Frida Giannini, Beyoncé Knowles-Carter and Salma Hayek Pinault. CHIME FOR CHANGE, founded by Gucci, is a new global campaign to raise funds and awareness for girls’ and women’s empowerment. Considering what the country went through in the past month and I found this a very touching video and campaign for this past Women’s Day!

CHIME FOR CHANGE will continue to update its community with exciting news, including a major announcement in mid-March about a global CHIME FOR CHANGE event that will put girls’ and women’s issues on the world’s stage. To stay informed, visit http://www.chimeforchange.org and join the community on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/ChimeForChange.

I think this is a great initiative as I love to see women get together to empower other women. What do you think about this new global campaign for girls and women’s empowerment ? Let me know in a comment below.
