In today's digital landscape, it's crucial to empower girls by recognizing their digital realities and addressing the challenges they face. By providing solutions tailored to their diverse needs, we can help them excel as technologists, ensuring freedom of expression, joy, and endless possibilities.

We must strive to amplify the voices of girls in technology, embracing their diversity and widening the pathways to success for every girl, regardless of race, gender, language, ability, economic status, or geographic origin. Girls are constantly breaking through stereotypes and barriers, including those that affect children with disabilities and those living in marginalized communities.

As entrepreneurs, innovators, and leaders of global movements, girls are shaping the future for themselves and generations to come. It's essential to acknowledge their contributions and support their endeavors.

In commemoration of the International Day of the Girl Child, themed "#Digital Generation Our Generation," His Marvellous Grace Support Foundation is proud to join the global community in celebrating girls' achievements. The event, held at Mike Jane Secondary School in Ikorodu, Lagos, Nigeria, underscores our commitment to promoting gender equality and empowering girls in the digital era.
