Every year, millions of couples celebrate their love by getting married, and millions of their family and friends celebrate with them.
What if we could share this love to do something bigger?
Our partner organisation VOW for Girls is an independent charitable initiative that partners with individuals, brands and the wedding industry to end child marriage around the world.
Make a donation, start a fundraiser for your guests, buy VOW products or make VOW your wedding registry charity of choice, so that your wedding can help girls around the world choose their own futures.
100% of the money raised by VOW goes to grassroots organisations working to end child marriage.
With donations made through VOW, grassroots organisations have worked with girls to ensure they can stay in school, build their confidence and leadership skills, and know their rights and options. They also work with families and communities to transform the harmful social norms that perpetuate child marriage, and to hold decision-makers to account for their commitments to ending the practice.
Thanks to this support, girls from 6 countries including the Democratic Republic of Congo, Dominican Republic, India, Nepal, Niger and Uganda have avoided marrying as children and have more options for their futures. Read their stories on the VOW website.
“I do not give up easily. I will continue to strive to make this world a better one, where everyone can live in freedom with equal rights.”
