The Dove Self-Esteem Fund (DSEF) was created in 2006 to educate and inspire girls to a wider definition of beauty and help them with a stronger sense of self esteem. DSEF is committed to helping girls build positive self-esteem and a healthy body image, with a goal of reaching 5 million girls globally by 2010.
Jess Weiner, an author, self-esteem expert and speaker, and DSEF's global ambassador, says: "My passion and mission in life is to create a nation of confident women and girls. Quite an ambition, I know! But I believe it’s possible."
HOW BROWN GIRLS EVERYWHERE
CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE:
CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE:
- In a 30 second video, share what your daughter feels makes her beautiful or what she learned from a self esteem program and then upload your daughter’s 30 second video to the Dove Self Esteem Fund Facebook page by 11/20/09. Post a comment right here on the OneBrownGirl.com® blog telling OBG and Dove that you uploaded your video...and you will receive a free OBG tote and OBG empowerment tee!
- Your Dove purchase also helps build self esteem! Enter your Dove UPC on Facebook and select a charity. Dove will donate $1 to inspiring self-esteem programs at a charity partner of your choice. Select either: (1) Girl Scouts, (2) Boys and Girls Clubs of America or (3) Girls Inc.
