As part of "Half the Sky" by Nicholas Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn, actress Eva Mendes visited the International Rescue Committee-supported Girls With a Future program in Freetown, Sierra Leone. It focuses on keeping girls in school, building their confidence and skills and at the same time, reducing their vulnerability to exploitation.
Read a People Magazine story about how the experience changed her life and learn more about Half the Sky and the IRC's programs for women and girls.
