All Girls Allowed

This non-profit is brand spanking new-- so no background on how money is spent. I do think that the Jenzabar Foundation is a solid organization. If anyone has heard differently or has any info--please post or email me.

A new non-profit group is fighting against "gendercide," forced abortions and sterilizations in China.

All Girls Allowed was founded by Chai Ling, two-time Nobel Peace Prize nominee and former chief student leader in the 1989 Tiananmen Square Movement.

The mission of All Girls Allowed is to restore life, value, and dignity to girls and mothers, and to reveal the injustice of China's One-Child Policy.

Since 1980, the implementation of China’s One-Child Policy has led to female gendercide, abandonment of daughters, human trafficking and violations of women’s reproductive rights. Through education, advocacy, strategic partnerships, and legal defense, All Girls Allowed strives to:

Mobilize the global community to advocate against the cruel methods used to enforce the One-Child Policy;

Educate families against gender-based pregnancy termination by easing the burden of having a baby girl with monthly stipends and a baby shower gift of clothes and food;

Provide legal defense and asylum counseling to mothers who are in danger of forced pregnancy termination or involuntary sterilization;

Support abandoned children, the vast majority of whom are girls, by raising funds for orphanages; and

Reunite trafficked women and children with their families.

All Girls Allowed is an initiative of the Jenzabar Foundation, Inc.Read more: http://www.allgirlsallowed.org/about/our-mission#ixzz14tQTgEir
