Children are our future leaders, but are we doing enough to prepare them?
One woman is making sure she is through her foundation called 'The Green Door'!
Beautiful News recently published a video about Chanene Van As, a former educator with 18 years of experience under her belt.

She saw a massive gap in the education of the young girls in her community and decided to dedicate her life to change that, and so 'The Green Door' was born! It's an after-school initiative to assist primary school girls who are at risk academically, teaching them life skills, recycling, gardening, and more.
