Shutterstock is celebrating the trailblazing women who are driving change, raising voices, and shaping the future through activism, leadership, and storytelling. This year we are highlighting nonprofits across the world that are focused on providing mentorship and educational support to young women, girls of color, and genderqueer individuals.
