Natalie Portman is passionate about the Power of a Girl.
Academy Award-winning actress Natalie Portman knows that investing in the education of girls is the most effective way to fight poverty, so she called upon the girls of North America and the United Kingdom to recognize their power to effect change by raising money and awareness for this important cause. She initiated a challenge, with the winner to receive the Rodarte designer dress she wore to the premiere of Black Swan, a Me to We trip to Kenya with the chance to meet some of the girls from Kisaruni, and more.
Although the contest is over, you can still see Natalie's call to all girls as part of the Power of a Girl Initiative.
