I'm not surprised, as I'm sure neither are most of you, but still, amazing!! I think it's awesome what Dove is doing, holding these workshops for young girls. Here is a description:
The Dove Self-Esteem Fund’s Real Beauty Workshops for Girls are fun, educational and interactive sessions for young girls aged 8-12 and their adult female mentors: mothers, relatives, friends – anyone interested in starting a dialogue on beauty and self-image with a member of the next generation. A $5 donation per person is required to attend the workshop.
Wow!! Maybe I'm just a cheeseball, but when the "no wonder our perception of beauty is distorted" flashed across the screen, I got chills!
That's great. And the workshops sound fantastic. I've been striving to use more Dove ever since they've started this whole real beauty campaign. I have so much respect for it!!
