“Achieving
gender equity
in our schools
is one of the
most important
steps we can take
toward achieving
equity in our
culture.
Myra Sadker
understood that
earlier and more
profoundly than
just about
anyone.”

— Judy Mann,
The Washington Post, March 4, 1998

 

 

     
What YOU Can Do
 

You can bring Myra's vision to fruition by helping create schools that are fair, safe, and inspiring for all boys and girls. Our individual and collective efforts can make that happen. As Margaret Mead once said:

Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.

You can move Myra's dream forward by making a financial contribution or through your own actions – or both!
