CARE Presents Half The Sky LIVE

CARE Presents Half The Sky LIVE

Building on the success of the 2009 International Women’s Day event, A Powerful Noise LIVE, CARE and partner organizations are planning to bring together thousands of people in theaters across the country to celebrate, learn and take action to empower women and girls in the fight against global poverty in 2010.

On Thursday, March 4th, 2010 at 7:30pm, CARE will present Half the Sky LIVE in movie theaters nationwide. Inspired by the best-selling book from Pulitzer-prize winning journalists Nicholas Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn, Half the Sky LIVE will celebrate International Women’s Day with musical performances, celebrity commentary, and the world premiere of Woineshet, a powerful short film directed by Academy Award® Winner Marisa Tomei.

The exclusive two-hour event is sure to be one of the most visible International Women’s Day celebrations on the planet. Half the Sky LIVE is the perfect way for our members and chapters to celebrate International Women’s Day together and stand in solidarity with women and girls all over the world.

Visit www.halftheskylive.com to watch the film trailer, find your local theater and purchase tickets (which will range from $10-12).

Also, share this with your contacts, and be sure to email groups@care.org to let CARE know about your plans to participate!
