Dove isn't just a company that manufactures health and beauty products. Dove is a company that has a mission to inspire self-esteem within young girls. I recently saw a Dove commercial and learned about Dove's Self-Esteem Programs that they have in cities across the country and around the world.
This is one of my favorite Dove commercials...
According to a National Report on the State of Self-Esteem posted on the Campaign For Real Beauty website, seven in ten girls believe that they are not good enough or do not measure up in some way - including their looks.
I love Dove for stepping up and helping change the meaning of true beauty. I haven't seen any other beauty or fashion companies doing anything like this... Have you?
There's a wealth of tools and information about what Dove is doing to help improve self-esteem in girls at the Campaign For Real Beauty website. Make sure to visit: www.campaignforrealbeauty.com
