Our History
In May 2020, SHE RISES INT’L, INC. was birthed out of the Founder’s passion and desire to empower, promote, counsel and encourage women/girls globally, but specifically in the developing world. Being sandwiched between two female siblings, Tinu Akinshola was born, raised, and grew up in the developing world (Lagos, Nigeria). Although, there were lots of opportunities for a girl-child in that part of the country, nevertheless, women and girls still fall far behind men economically, educationally, as well as in leadership positions due to cultural, religious and ethnic restrictions that mostly favor men and boys.
SHE RISES Int’l, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) Organization that proactively advocates for gender justice and equity locally and throughout the developing world
