To everyone celebrating Easter, Michelle and I wish you a joyful holiday filled with reminders of the enduring power of faith and hope.

Throughout #WomensHistoryMonth, I’ve been sharing the stories of organizations in the @GirlsAlliance Network working to empower young women and girls around the world. Today, I'm sharing more about Quinta Ola, a leadership development program for girls in Peru. Take a look:

Box United is teaching Chicago girls how to grow into strong women—both inside the ring and out! This #WomensHistoryMonth, learn about the ways the @GirlsAlliance is supporting the program’s work to empower young girls through boxing.

We're proud of the work our Network is doing to support the next generation of girls in Chicago. Take a look at the magic that happened when we brought together more than 100 of these leaders—and then consider joining us to support their efforts this #WomensHistoryMonth!

I’m proud of the work that the @GirlsAlliance is doing to support 250 grassroots projects to empower more than 160,000 girls in 50 countries. This #InternationalWomensDay, I hope you’ll join us in helping change the lives of more girls around the world: gofundme.org/girls-opportun…

Growing up in Chicago, I loved jumping Double Dutch. That’s why I’m so inspired by the work of @BlackGirlsJump—they are spreading joy, building bonds, and helping girls become confident leaders. We’re proud to support their work through the @GirlsAlliance. #BlackHistoryMonth

This #BlackHistoryMonth, learn more about the work of @SistersinCine–part of our @GirlsAlliance Network–to help support the next generation of Black filmmakers and storytellers. 🎬

This #BlackHistoryMonth, we are celebrating some of the remarkable leaders in our Network who are making a difference in Chicago. Dr. Darryca Brim started Focus Fairies Mentoring to support girls in her community who often don’t have access to mentorship programs. Take a look:

Michelle and I were deeply saddened to hear about the passing of a true giant, the Reverend Jesse Jackson. We will always be grateful for Jesse's lifetime of service, and the friendship our families share. We stood on his shoulders. We send our deepest condolences to the Jackson family and everyone in Chicago and beyond who knew and loved him.

My favorite teammates on and off the court. 🏀

My forever Valentine. Love you, always, Barack! ♥️

The @GirlsAlliance is proud to support girls getting #STEM education all around the world—including at the Dhammajarinee Witthaya School in Thailand. On this International Day of Women and Girls in Science, I hope you’ll learn more about their story and consider supporting our work. gofundme.org/girls-opportun…

Good luck to all the extraordinary athletes representing @TeamUSA at the Winter Olympics and Paralympics! It’s been so inspiring to follow your journeys to the world stage, and we'll be cheering you on as you compete in Italy.

Happy Black History Month! For 100 years, each February we’ve celebrated the Black folks who've shaped our nation and fought for our freedoms. As we reflect on how far we've come, we can't lose sight of the work that remains. The dreams of our ancestors depend on all of us carrying on their work and refusing to be deterred. That's what Black history is all about: the enduring hope, joy, resilience and resistance—truths that resonate as powerfully today as ever before.

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.
