How to Support Girls With No Rights, Resources, or Choice: Clay Dunn of VOW for Girls

Clay Dunn, CEO of Vow for Girls, is here to discuss the global issue of child marriage. Clay reveals that over 12 million girls will become child brides this year, with significant concentrations in Latin America, Sub-Saharan Africa, and Asia. Child marriage is also legal in over 30 U.S. states. Clay explains that child marriage often stems from gender inequality and poverty, with parents marrying off girls to protect them. Vow for Girls supports local leaders to change community norms and empower girls through education and economic opportunities. Donate at https://drmindypelz.com/vowpod

Clay Dunn is the Chief Executive Officer of VOW for Girls, the organization that turns moments of celebration – weddings, anniversaries, birthdays, and more — into support for the girls around the world without the rights, resources, and choices to decide their own futures.

Clay became VOW's first CEO (and first full-time employee!) in late 2019. Under his leadership, VOW has seen tremendous growth, mobilizing millions, expanding its community of supporters, and setting a bold strategic plan for the next phase of the organization's growth.

Before leading VOW, Clay spent a decade helping launch and build the successful No Kid Hungry campaign to end childhood hunger in America. Before moving into more purpose-driven work, he was a marketing and entertainment executive, most recently at National Geographic Channels.
