EDUCATION IS THE KEY TO UNLOCKING GIRLS’ POTENTIAL,
OPENING THE DOOR TO A BETTER FUTURE

Clé de Peau Beauté has renewed its partnership with UNICEF in 2023, continuing the shared mission to address gender inequality in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) with education, employment, and empowerment.
The renewed partnership between Clé de Peau Beauté and UNICEF aims to reach 5.7 million more girls around the world over the next three years, providing the tools and resources they need to develop their skills and fulfil their potential. This represents nearly half of UNICEF’s overall aim to help unlock the potential of 11.5 million girls through Skills4Girls programs in more than 30 countries globally by 2025.

Beginning in 2019, Clé de Peau Beauté partnered with UNICEF to promote Quality Education and Gender Equality under UNICEF's #4 and #5 Sustainable Development Goals.

Between 2019 and 2022, Clé de Peau Beauté's support for UNICEF's programs has benefited more than 3.5 million girls around the world. To fund their combined efforts, Clé de Peau Beauté has pledged US$8.7 million to support UNICEF’s Gender Equality Program, the world's largest private sector contribution to this area.
This funding will support initiatives to create more equitable access to STEM opportunities and improve representation and leadership of women within the STEM disciplines around the world.

“At Clé de Peau Beauté, we believe that the key to a better world lies in unlocking the potential of girls through Education. This belief serves as the foundation of our long-term philanthropic commitment, as well as the reason why we are extending our partnership with UNICEF. By continuing this crucial work for the next three years, we aim to continue driving positive change by empowering girls all over the world. Each of us has a role to play in realizing this shared vision, and by working together, we can create a better future.”
