A woman is the embodiment of tenderness, strength, love, devotion and wisdom. On this International Women’s Day, Words on a Limb would like to extend our appreciation and recognize women across the globe for being the pillars the world stands on. For without love, nothing else matters.

To get involved in breaking the cycle of poverty and gender discrimination of girls around the world, please visit Because I am a Girl. Because I am a Girl is an initiative of Plan Canada, a global movement for change, mobilizing millions of people around the world to support social justice for children in developing countries.

Happy International Women’s Day, 2015!
