- One Girl CAN... As a lead-up to International Day Of The Girl on October 11th, I’m helping the @onegirlcansociety to spread the word about their amazing initiative. In partnership with @aghair and @brunettethelabel , @onegirlcansociety is encouraging us to pledge our support of girls’ rights and the elimination of gender inequality in Sub-Saharan Africa. Pledging to this cause supports girls as they take charge of their futures by demanding equitable treatment. The first 50 people who commit to the cause will receive a thank-you gift consisting of products from AG Hair's award-winning Natural line.
