She’s the First provides scholarships to girls in low-income countries, fostering first-generation graduates and cultivating the next generation of global leaders.

Working closely with our international, locally-driven NGO partners, scholars are identified based on financial need, scholastic merit, and their potential to become positive influencers and leaders within their communities.

We focus on adolescent girls in secondary (high) school and on quality education, including a support system like mentors, tutors, and extracurriculars that teach them life skills and leadership; 100% of what you raise and donate to the scholarship fund goes directly to the girls at our partner schools.​ We fundraise separately for our other programs and operating needs.

She’s the First is represented on high school and university campuses all over the country by independent chapters under the direction of trailblazing student leaders. Our campus chapters host fundraisers throughout the year to sponsor girls at She’s the First partner schools, while spreading awareness and creating a dialogue in their residence halls, student center, local community, and of course, on social media. We sponsor 529 girls to date in 10 countries!​

The Full Participation Project: No Ceilings: The Full Participation Project is an initiative of the Clinton Foundation that works to advance and inspire the full participation of girls and women in the 21st century. While we have seen significant progress in the last 20 years, we are not there yet when it comes to gender equality in the U.S. or around the world. Yet, everyone can make a difference and help us “get there” together. By taking small, meaningful actions that promote full participation in your daily life – like those in the #NoCeilings 30-Day Challenge – you can help yourself, your friends, and your community on the path to full participation.

Distinctive design, sophisticated style, functional luxury. MZ Wallace is a design company launched in 2000 by Monica Zwirner and Lucy Wallace Eustice, two native New Yorkers. Inspired by city life, the two created an accessory collection that combined functional luxury with distinctive design for women who lead a dynamic lifestyle.

Versatility is in the MZ Wallace DNA. Work, travel, gym, beach, shopping, and life. The brand aims to design bags that fulfill all that might happen in the day of the life of a modern woman.

The Chelsea Tote is made of Bedford, a light, soft, and durable nylon made exclusively for MZ Wallace. The fabric is treated with a coating to make it water and stain resistant, it will not tear, rip or stain with normal use. The bag also features MZ Wallace gold hardware and Italian leather accents with signature red edge-dye.

Hi! I'm Nathalie Vacheron, a senior at Rhodes hailing from Germantown, Tennessee. I love to write, I love to edit, and I'm in love with the voice Her Campus gives to women across college campuses. In addition to Her Campus, I'm involved in my sorority, Tri Delta, work in the Counseling/Health Center, am a First Year mentor, and love to run when I can. I'm a Business & Commerce major concentrating in management with a minor in Psychology. I hope to go into health administration, community health, or work for a non-profit (and write a book somewhere in-between...) xoxo
