Consider making a donation to the Girl Noticed project. On September 27, 2015, Lori Pratico erected a charcoal mural in Montclair NJ of two young women (one of whom happens to be family of mine). The goal of the Girl Noticed project is to honor and recognize women around the country...and, because the murals are in charcoal, provoke the realization that, if unrecognized, potential too can fade away. To see photos of the process, visit the Girl Noticed Facebook page. Girl Noticed is coming to Oakland, so you if live in the East Bay, consider nominating a girl to be noticed.
