At the #CelebrateSTF Tweetup yesterday, we were pleased to meet Kirsten Acuna, who just finished up finals at Syracuse University and returned to Manhattan (in the nick of time for Tweetup!). Earlier in the semester, she had interviewed Tammy Tibbetts & Christen Brandt about how She’s the First got started, and wrote/published a feature story in the campus’ Medley Magazine. The magazine, of which she was editor-in-chief, is dedicated to stories about international affairs and cross-cultural exchange, and we are honored to be included! Our two-page spread featured a very special girl who inspires us all — Elizabeth David, the first student we sponsored in AfricAid’s Kisa Project program, in Tanzania. (We also sponsor Elizabeth & Grace!)
For college students, reaching out to the campus newspaper, TV show, radio station, or magazines is an easy way to spread awareness of She’s the First’s call to sponsor girls’ education. We recently blogged about She’s the First*{Manhattan} doing just this with their college paper. Very proud of all our college supporters this semester — thank you for your impact!
