Founders

Hello! I’m Meerub Rana, a student at Thomas Jefferson High School for Science & Technology. I am interested in civics, public health & law, as someone deeply tied to culture and traditions, I hope that through founding this non profit organization we can redefine what accountability, justice and aftercare looks like for victims of sexual assault and gender based violence.

With a vision for building an international nonprofit that will truly reach young people and help survivors, I am extremely dedicated to the issues of gender based and sexual violence. I believe that every woman deserves support, and Girls Rising strives to provide this.
