March is a time to spotlight the voices and choices of women who have helped shape the world. During this month, we hope to inspire you to honor the many female individuals making a positive difference in your life and in the lives of others, both now and in the past. Read on to learn more about how you can celebrate Women’s History Month!

Fall in Love with Female Authors

One of the easiest ways to support women is by reading more books written by female authors. Whether you like biographies or fiction, there are so many incredible works by women gracing the shelves of Mountain House Library, that you’re sure to find one that appeals to you. Pro-Tip: Try reading more diverse books, so you can open your mind to many new perspectives!

Support Women-Owned Businesses

There are many ways you can show your support for hardworking, female entrepreneurs. We recommend checking out female makers on Etsy, sharing favorite women-owned businesses—by word-of-mouth or with your social media followers—and using directories to find up-and-coming brands to buy from. Your purchases and encouragement can pave the way for more women to do what they love!

A Love Letter to Women

Sometimes all it takes is a simple social media post to show your love and support for women. Take this time to honor someone who has personally inspired you, whether it’s your mother, aunt, grandmother, or sister. Pro Tip: Encourage your friends and followers to keep the trend going, and honor the women in their lives!

They Are Women: Hear Them Roar

If you don’t know the story behind women’s rights, now is the time to learn. Check out some books from the library, or search online to study the history behind the movement! Be sure to explore the historical figures who have advocated for women, such as Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Malala Yousafzai, and Susan B. Anthony. At the end of your journey, you’ll understand why the female movement is so important.

March, March, March

The Women’s March is a vital moment in the fight for female rights and showcases the diverse range of issues that many women face on a daily basis. Sign up for a local movement, or organize your own, and join others in using your voice to bring us one step closer to a better and brighter future!

We hope this blog has inspired you to participate in Women’s History Month, and support all women—today and every day.
