A Special Message from First Lady Michelle Obama
A Special Message from First Lady Michelle Obama
Your work has not gone unnoticed! President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama are so delighted that YALI Network members are showing their commitment to empowering women and girls through the #Africa4Her initiative. As you may know, this issue is especially important to the First Lady, which is why she launched the Let Girls Learn initiative one year ago.
The YALI Network is a place to develop leadership skills by engaging with experts and especially your talented peers on topics that really matter to you, to your communities, and to your continent. And leadership is about empowering all our people – women as well as men, boys as well as girls – to fulfill their potential. Now, I urge you as YALI Network members, to seek out ways to help girls and women across your countries and in your communities realize their full potential.
As Michelle Obama said, “We need you to encourage more talented African women to join the YALI Network so they can become leaders in their countries.” Join us in that effort and make your pledge today at yali.state.gov/4her.
Sincerely,
Macon
