Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
Valentine’s Day is kind of dumb,
But holy crap, Idris Elba!
Just some free verse. I don’t know about any of you, but I would just sit there the entire time and listen to him talk because he has the greatest voice ever. He should partner with a GPS company next. Can you imagine?! I would get lost on purpose all the time just so I could have him lead me safely to my location.
All joking aside though, the most important part of this is the charity: W.E. Can Lead.
W.E. Can Lead is committed to ensuring young girls receive the educational opportunity, leadership development and mentoring support necessary to become the new generation of female leaders across the continent of Africa. Safe spaces are created for girls to learn critical life skills, build self-esteem and defy the cultural norms that hinder them from fulfilling their full potential. W.E. Can Lead strive to empower girls to become influential leaders and decision-makers in their homes, communities and eventually, their country.
Girls need all the help they can get in this world, and quality education is sadly not something that is a universal guarantee. I certainly want to live in a world where girls grow up with every advantage that they could possibly have. Female empowerment and leadership leads to great things for everyone, that’s a fact.
So do the selfless thing and spend the most romantic holiday of the year with Idris Elba. For the children!
