GATHER ▪ WALK ▪ CELEBRATE WOMEN WORKING IN THE MARINE INDUSTRY ▪ SUPPORT GIRL’S EDUCATION ACROSS THE GLOBE!
Join our Global Women’s Walk 2025—a movement to honor, support, and elevate the powerhouse women shaping the marine industry.
This is more than a walk—it’s a global movement uniting the marine industry to celebrate, support, and uplift women and girls!
To go to school, girls in many communities must overcome many challenges including cultural bias, discrimination, poverty and violence. Room to Read’s Girls’ Education Program has supported over 3.7 million girls, advancing education, literacy, and gender equality in historically low-income communities around the globe.
Your donation can provide girls in our program with:
- Classes on life skills such as leadership, resilience and critical thinking
- Individualized support and guidance from a local woman mentor
- Family and community engagement to raise awareness and build support for girls' education
- Material support for needs such as tuition, books and supplies, uniforms, and safe transportation to school
