#DreamBigPrincess Video Series
The #DreamBigPrincess global video series empowers the next generation of leaders by spotlighting female trailblazers as they share their stories and advice. 21 talented young women from 13 countries captured the stories of these leaders in digital shorts that will be shared across Disney’s global social media.
Plus, from October 10–November 20, 2018, for each like or share of a public video or photo with #DreamBigPrincess on Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter, Disney will donate $1 to Girl Up, the United Nations Foundation’s initiative supporting girls’ leadership and empowerment (minimum donation: $500,000/maximum donation: $1 million). For more information about Girl Up, go to girlup.org.
While the donation goal has been met, you can still inspire others to dream big by sharing the videos and photos online. No additional posts or likes will trigger any more donations.

Robin Roberts: "Make your mess your message. You’re going to make mistakes. If you’re waiting for a time that you don’t have that fear, you’re going to be on the sidelines a long time. The most successful people in any industry are fearful."
of“You have to have important dreams, distant dreams.If you have a dream that is very easy to achieve, once you get it you are left with no path to follow. Modest dreams don’t work. Big dreams are those that ultimately give meaning to life.”–María Teresa Ruiz
of“Follow your passion. Not what you think you should do or ought to do, but what you love to do. Give yourself a little flexibility. It’s okay if you think something is your passion and there’s things you love about it, but maybe it’s not what you thought and you want to go off and do something different.”–Susan Prescott
of“When you’re doubting, when you’re starting to shrink your dreams, just look up and keep dreaming bigger. All you need is one person to believe and sometimes, that person is you.”” – Victoria Arlen
of“Where you are now is nothing compared to where you will go, and you have to trust that. You have a right to create. You have a right to have a voice. And know that just because you have that right doesn’t mean you have all the answers.”–Jennifer Lee
of“A word I use over and over again is tenacity. I think it’s important to remember that it’s never going to be easy the first time out, so you just have to keep going at it again and again especially if you firmly believe in what you do.”–Kathleen Kennedy
of“The most difficult challenge I had was to find myself and what I want to do in life. I always struggled between science and art, and then I understood that you can be both rational and creative. That is research. Questions come with rational, and answers with your imagination.”–Dr. Asmaa Boujibar
of“The sky is not the limit. Go for the heavens. Go for gold. Work hard for your goals and don’t limit yourself. You can become anybody in the world if you work hard, if you have the passion for it, and if you love what you do.”–Dr. Ndifanji Namacha
of“I think realizing dreams is very important, but the journey to realize those dreams is also worth remembering. So often, people doubt the ability of a young woman like me. I use those challenges as motivation. I never back off. Instead, I encourage myself to become stronger.”–Leia Mi
of“In my career, there were more no’s than yes’s. But still, I kept fighting and fighting and fighting and I kept trying until one day I finally made it.” – Martina Stoessel
of“There’s a line in Mary Poppins where she says anything is possible, even the impossible. I think that really symbolizes what dreaming big is all about, the idea if you want something big enough that the universe is going to conspire to give it to you.” – Emily Blunt
of"From a young child, I was diagnosed with dyslexia. People look at it as a disability. It’s not. It’s the ability to think differently. What life takes away with one hand will give you always back with another. You just have to recognize what it is.” – Jo Malone CBE
of“Only do it if you love it. That’s what I’ve lived by since day one.” – Karen Walker
of“When you establish what you want, dreaming big means getting what you want. And it doesn’t have to be the same thing as someone else or what’s established, but it has to be exactly what you want.” – Mónica López Hidalgo
of“The important thing is that there’s talent. And talent has no gender, and talent has no nationality, and talent has no age.” – Blanca Treviño
of“You have to keep learning more. You’re never going to be at the pinnacle of anything, because the mountain keeps going higher. Everything is a stepping stone toward something else. You have to keep going.” – Ashima Narain
of“During my personal journey, I realized that when we stop seeing the limiting aspect of disability, we discover what we can develop because of the disability. Finally, we understand that it is an immense strength.” – Virginie Delalande
of“If you want to do it, set your mind on what you want to do and understand that you won’t get it right the first time. And you don’t have to, it’s OK to make mistakes.” – Paola Carosella
of"There were barely any [female] championships, it was very hard, very challenging, but I guess that’s exactly what kept me motivated. Because there was nothing ready, and I like building things.” – Karen Jonz
of“Dreaming big is the only thing to do, it is the best thing to do. Dreaming big allows you to look at the world through the lense of great opportunities and abilities. By doing that, you open yourself up to every possibility that’s available. So that when doors open for you, you can walk into those with confidence.” – Celina Caesar-Chavannes
ofThis campaign aims to make a tangible difference for girls who face challenges in achieving their dreams, through a collaboration with Girl Up.
Funds generated through this campaign will help support Girl Up’s leadership development programs. These programs engage girls to take action and advocate for themselves and girls globally, giving them empowering tools to help transform the world. Funds from this collaboration will help more girls start Girl Up Clubs in the US and around the world, and build a new program for Girl Up members to help them grow their skills and increase their leadership potential.
Girl Up is an initiative of the UN Foundation, working across a global community of partners to achieve gender equality worldwide. Visit www.girlup.org to learn more.
