THE POWER OF RADIANCE PROGRAM

CLÉ DE PEAU BEAUTÉ HONORS THOSE WHO EMPOWER WOMEN AND GIRLS
TO GIVE RADIANCE BACK TO THE WORLD THROUGH EDUCATION

Clé de Peau Beauté has launched a multi-year philanthropic commitment that honors inspirational women from around the world whose advocacy for women and girl’s education has led to positive long term impact on lives.

The program will select an Award Recipient annually to receive a grant donated to a charity of her choice, in support of educational initiatives. Through this endeavor, Clé de Peau Beauté seeks to empower women and young girls through the gift of knowledge and learning, and make a tangible difference by igniting radiance within the world.

In its inaugural year, the Power of Radiance program will celebrate its first annual award recipient, Muzoon Almellehan, the first individual with refugee status to be a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador. The program's Global Ambassador, Felicity Jones, and program contributors, Cindi Leive, Naomi Kawase, and Belinda Lee, lend their talents to share the program mission and inspire others to support education around the world and in their communities.

“Education is the most potent equalizer of opportunity. And for nations, investing in quality education for children and young people creates the foundation for more peaceful and prosperous families, communities and economies. I will never stop speaking out for those whose voices have been silenced for too long, until every child is in school and learning.”
Muzoon Almellehan, UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador
