Edu-GIRLS seeks to address the unique challenges to delivering education to girls created by social and gender bias in poverty affected households. In such households, with both parents trying to earn a living, girls are often held back from school to take care of the household or look after younger siblings or even to add to the meager family income through menial work. Edu-GIRLS approach customizes delivery methods to achieve success in such a setting, where few resources are devoted to the girl child. We do not stop at increased primary enrollment. We do not stop at achieving high rates of high school completion. We extend ourselves to ensure that girls have acquired skills for good jobs. We go all the way to financial independence.

Outreach Antigone Rising visits schools, community & youth centers, embassies and corporations for a 60-90 minute outreach program.We share stories about our experience as women in a male-dominated industry. We weave songs throughout the program as relevant to the discussion. A typical outreach ends with a Q&A period and song requests from the audience. The band's light-hearted rapport makes every Girls Rising event unique, entertaining and informative. Most importantly, a Girls Rising outreach always leaves kids (and grown ups) feeling empowered.
