Fathers Empowering Daughters

I grew up under the watchful care and unconditional love of two incredible parents, Aba and Dilu Mohamed. Every time Mother’s Day and Father’s Day roll around, I think about how I will celebrate these two amazing people.

What we unveiled on Monday you’d expect us to unveil for Mother’s Day. Since we are anything but predictable and we enjoy the element of surprise and creativity, this year we are launching a global, accessible and unique campaign to celebrate fathers who empower their daughters.

Fathers Empowering Daughters is about showcasing both high profile and everyday dads. We reached out to Richard Branson, Quincy Jones and Malala’s dad to tell us how they empower their daughters. We also asked dads like mine to share their story.

At the same time, we asked daughters how their fathers have empowered them and Chelsea Clinton, Carla Ortiz, Petra Nemcova and Nikki Yanofsky told us their story.

Now its your turn!

Fathers, record a 1-2 minute about and tell us: how have you, can you and will you empower your daughter? Daughters, how has your dad empowered you or how can he empower you? Record it together or alone – we want to hear from you.

Thanks and Happy Father’s Day!
