Education
Stella’s work with teens and teachers seeks to inspire and empower young people to find their own creative voices, challenge gender stereotypes and participate in the world of books and reading.
I cannot think of a better way to begin to reach gender equality than by supporting an organisation that provides our next generation with the tools they need to be agents of such important cultural change.
