#Internationalwomensday was created by working women campaigning for change. It's one thing to bring awareness and celebrate women's achievements. It's another thing to take actions that result in meaningful change. Current realities:Women continue to earn less than men in almost every occupation. In the mountains, female mountain guides are a rare sight. There are about 100 @amga1979 certified mountain guides in the US, only 6 are women. Today, I put my money where my mouth is and made a donation to @liz_daley's scholarship fund to help support future opportunities for female mountain guides (link in profile). I urge you to do more than raise awareness. Do something. Mentor a young woman, research the issues and support a charity. Celebrate the gains but remember, we've still got work to do. Let's change the world for the better!#NotThere #NoCeiling #LivelikeLiz #MakeItHappen #climblikeagirl #heforshe Photo: @jaybeyerimaging
