As 'Barbie: The Movie' captivated audiences worldwide, it sought to extend its message of empowerment beyond the screen. By partnering with Pledge, 'Barbie: The Movie' launched a global fundraising campaign to support Save the Children's girls' empowerment programs. The campaign focused on closing the "Dream Gap"—the barriers that prevent young girls from reaching their full potential. Through this initiative, the movie’s audience helped raise over $1.5M, directly benefiting girls around the world.

Discovery are partnering with Save the Children to help girls reach their full potential.
