Turning Celebrations into Opportunities for Girls
VOW for Girls works to end child marriage by supporting community-led programs that help girls stay safe, stay in school, and build independent futures. Through partnerships with local organizations around the world, VOW helps create lasting opportunities for girls to thrive on their own terms.
It's a GLOBAL Issue
Child marriage affects millions of girls worldwide.
Every 3 seconds, a girl becomes a bride. Every year, 12 million girls are married before turning 18. Girls are forced to leave school, lose opportunities, and enter marriage before they are ready. Child marriage impacts girls across countries, cultures, and communities — limiting education, health, safety, and future opportunities.
How VOW is Making an Impact
Proven solutions are creating change.
Child marriage is preventable. When girls have access to education, safe support systems, healthcare, and economic opportunities, entire communities become stronger. VOW supports locally led programs focused on long-term, sustainable impact.
