"I want to see another world with open eyes."๐
Meet Khushi. Her name means joy, but growing up in Bihar, India, she says she never felt she had the right to be happy.
At 14, her family began pressuring her into marriage.
Around the same time, she joined a Sukanya (girls) club - part of our Adolescent Girls' Program, which creates safe spaces for 1,400 girls across rural Bihar to learn about their rights, access education, and build confidence to make key decisions about their lives.๐ช
With this support, Khushi was able to stop her own marriage.โ
Today, she's pursuing her bachelor's degree, teaching at a local school & mentoring girls in her community.
We're bringing Khushi to Australia as part of 2026 - and you can meet her in person at our 'I am my own leader' events happening in May.
Her story is one you won't forget. ๐
