• reduce poverty

The Game Change

A New Paradigm

10x10 is creating a new paradigm in social-issue filmmaking by bringing together production and advocacy right from the get-go. 10x10 partners with forward-thinking nonprofits, celebrities, policy leaders, corporations and concerned citizens like you to build a global movement to demand equal opportunity for girls.

The Film

Girl Rising

Girl Rising is a groundbreaking film, directed by Academy Award nominee Richard Robbins, which tells the stories of 9 extraordinary girls from 9 countries, written by 9 celebrated writers and narrated by 9 renowned actresses.

Goal 1

Change Minds

Big change starts small. The first step toward success is simple: pass it on. We know that educating girls will change the world. The more people who share that message - through social networks, at the dinner table, in boardrooms, in rural villages - the more support we build. By spreading the word, 10x10 is changing minds.

Goal 2

Changing Lives

10x10 partners with the pros in the field - organizations with proven track records of educating girls. By telling stories of their work and directing donations to their programs that help girls get into and stay in school, 10x10 is changing lives.

Goal 3

Changing Policy

10x10 partners with policy leaders to influence governments and global institutions. Laws that ensure every girl has an equal opportunity to reach her full potential must be enacted - and enforced. By keeping up the pressure, 10x10 can help change policy.
