A note on the Malala Fund
My goal in writing this book was to raise my voice on behalf of the millions of girls around the world
who are being denied their right to go to school and realise their potential. I hope my story will
inspire girls to raise their voice and embrace the power within themselves, but my mission does not
end there. My mission, our mission, demands that we act decisively to educate girls and empower
them to change their lives and communities.
That is why I have set up the Malala Fund.
The Malala Fund believes that each girl, and boy, has the power to change the world and that all
she needs is a chance. To give girls this chance, the Fund aspires to invest in efforts that empower
local communities, develop innovative solutions that build upon traditional approaches, and deliver
not just basic literacy but the tools, ideas and networks that can help girls find their voice and create a
better tomorrow.
I hope that all of you will join this cause so that we can work together to make girls’ education and
empowerment a true priority once and for all. Please join my mission.
