Message from Jane Roberts:

Please Read Nicholas Kristof's and Sheryl Wudunn's crucially important book "HALF THE SKY: Turning Oppression into Opportunity for Women Worldwide." It is a groundbreaking book which tells wonderful stories of women who triumph over incredible adversity to change their world and ours. 34 Million Friends plays a big part in chapter 8. A Kristof quote about Jane: "I tend to think that the great injustices of the kind we write about in `Half the Sky' will involve not only leadership from the White House and the UN but also from citizens like Jane Roberts in places like Redlands."
How very nice!!!   

The United Nations Association Pasadena Foothills Chapter is proud to support and promote 34 Million Friends of the United Nations Population Fund and to help cofounder Jane Roberts coordinate her activities in support of this grassroots movement for the health and human rights of the women of the world.

UNFPA helps the most vulnerable women in the world plan their families, give birth safely, and protect themselves from HIV/AIDS. It promotes gender equality in education for girls and works worldwide to eliminate gender-based violence.

Please join us
in supporting 34 Million Friends of UNFPA.
