Too many people live in extreme poverty in our country. Our women and girls are hit the hardest.

As the world prepares for the UN General Assembly in New York in September, SABC and ONE Africa call

on South Africa and other nations to invest more in women and girls, because when we empower a woman,

we empower a nation. We invite you to stand with Strong Girls everywhere. Join SABC

and ONE by singing the Strong Girl petition on www.one.org or visit www.sabc.co.za for more information.
