Diane von Furstenberg is a legendary fashion designer, and she’s also a big believer in celebrating women. With Mother’s Day around the corner, we’re thrilled that she’s serving as the
Video Volunteers guest curator for this month, and asking you to create videos for organizations that support women.
Every day on YouTube, we view women standing up for what they believe in and challenging inequality: from this Saudi Arabian woman
driving a car as an act of protest; to Queen Rania of Jordan
combating stereotypes of the Middle East. Now we want you to make your voice heard. Create a video about your favorite organization that supports women -- whether it promotes equal pay for equal work, helps women run for elected office, or furthers efforts to outlaw female genital mutilation -- and upload it to the
Video Volunteers channel.
The top three videos will appear on the YouTube homepage at the end of the month, next to Diane von Furstenberg’s video for
Vital Voices. Hear more from her about how you can get involved:
The deadline to submit your video is May 26, so check out
www.youtube.com/videovolunteers to find an inspirational organization you can help. After all, service never goes out of style.
