Alex and Ani, LLC and Plan Celebrate the International Day of the Girl

Plan International USA and Alex and Ani are teaming up to celebrate the first annual International Day of the Girl. Adopted by the United Nations last year, the International Day of the Girl is a day to recognize girls' rights and the unique challenges girls around the world face.

Girls in developing countries face overwhelming odds from the moment they are born. They are more likely than boys to suffer from malnutrition; be subjected to violence; be forced into early marriage; be trafficked or sold; or become infected with HIV. Often denied access to education and healthcare, girls languish behind their male counterparts.
