\"\"In the world\u2019s poorest communities, women and girls bear the brunt of poverty. They are denied basic human rights. They have limited access to health care, to an education, to the opportunity to earn a living. They are denied a say in the decisions that affect their future\"\"But when women are healthier, their children and families are healthier. When girls get an education, they build better lives for themselves and their families. And when women have an income, they invest in their children and families, creating benefits for this generation and the next.<\/p>

When one women is helped out of poverty, she brings many other people with her.\"\"At CARE International<\/a> we support women and girls to achieve their full and equal human rights.<\/p>

We also promote gender equality not just as an aim in itself, but as an integral part of all our work: from health projects that focus on maternal and sexual health to livelihoods projects that focus on creating more opportunities for women to work and gain an income<\/a>.\"\"We believe when it comes to achieving gender equality, the time is now<\/strong>.<\/p>

We put women and girls in the centre because we know that we cannot overcome poverty until all people have equal rights and opportunities.\"\"<\/a>To support CARE International and the important work they do for women and girls facing poverty all over the world, get this The Time is Now t-shirt, made with recycled organic cotton.
