Internationally acclaimed model Toni Garrn is the new ambassador of Plan's "Because I am a Girl" campaign. Kicking off her engagement for the children's charity Plan International, the 22 year old visited educational projects in aid of needy girls in Burkina Faso by June this year. The West African country counts one of the five poorest in the world. Girls are especially stricken by poverty and the sparse educational opportunities. Only every second girl attends a primary school and very few have the chance to attend a secondary school.
