Have you heard the awesome news that Salma Hayek and Beyoncé have partnered with Frida Giannini of Gucci to raise funds and awareness for women’s empowerment? I couldn’t be more excited or proud of these leading ladies in Hollywood – what an incredible effort! Through a new campaign, Chime For Change, they are focused on raising capital for legal aide, healthcare and education for women. Beyoncé, one of the co-founders of Chime For Change, was quoted saying, “Girls have to be taught from early on that they are strong and capable of being anything they want to be. It’s up to us to change the statistics for women around the world.”

Launched at the TEDxWomen luncheon, Chime for Change is aimed to affect change in the lives of women by supporting key factors: justice, education and health. The campaign is being supported by some key agencies like Hearst Magazines, Huffington Post and Facebook have all joined the cause – and the list will certainly continue to grow. Frida Gianni said, “I think it is essential for girls and women to see and celebrate what is possible”
Chime for Change is pretty incredible and it’s great to see so many other influential organizations jump on board. Way to go ladies!
