Rally for Girls Education

What is Rally for Girls Education?

Rally For Girls Education is a virtual, cross-country pep-rally to raise awareness and inspire action for improving girls education in low-income countries globally. A live and interactive event featuring appearances by Right To Play Ambassadors and special guests from the Government of Canada, Rally For Girls Education will also kick-off #Rally4GirlsEd, a week-long virtual challenge to mobilize Canadian youth around the call for global girls education.​


When is the event?

The kickoff takes place on Friday, February 4th from 1:00pm - 1:45pm EST. You can register to join above, and don't forget to wear your Rally For Girls Education tee! This livestreamed event will kickoff the challenge to raise awareness for girls education.


What is the Challenge?
For one week following the kickoff, we're challenging you to show your support for global girls education and inspire others to join in. We're challenging you to post a photo with the hashtag #Rally4GirlsEd and tell us the story of a female who has inspired you and expanded your education to global perspectives. 

It could be anyone! A teacher, your mother, daughter, coach, an actor, a world leader, or your social justice idol. We want to know how they've influenced your education and inspired you to raise your voice in support of every girls' right to learn.


Why do I need to register?

In the spirit of sport, we're adding a little friendly competition: Each University Club will register their school as  Team on the OneCause platform. Keep an eye on our leaderboard - each Team has one week to earn points by getting people to complete the challenge and share on social media using #Rally4GirlsEd.
