This team is showing what can be done in just 15 days. VOICE 4 Girls is conducting a 15 days campaign which will help shy and timid girls to come out in the open and be more confident in their lives. Girls who were once shy and would not even speak are now living with an entirely different perspective. All of this was possible with just a 15 day summer camp.

Mansa, an adolescent girl who never stepped out of her village is now a different person. She has been rallying against child marriage and has also written a book about the challenges girls face.
