Child marriage is a human rights violation. Tragically, 1 in 7 girls in developing countries is married by age 15 — often to a man twice her age or older. Child brides are often separated from friends and family and are denied an education. They are also at higher risk for violence, HIV, and death during pregnancy or childbirth.
We need your continued and expanded support to help combat child marriage. There will be more than 100 million child brides in the next decade if we don't act now.
I urge all of you to join the movement.
