Girls all around the world have been the victims of abuse. A website named Operation Beautiful has started a mission to increase self-esteem in these girls and prevent negative self-talk. Girls write small inspirational notes on post-it notes and stick them on mirrors and bathroom stalls in public areas. These notes have even saved many girls’ lives. In WA, many girls have found these notes stuck to the mirrors and stalls of the bathrooms.

Post-it notes have been found in the bathrooms here at WA. These notes have messages that say: “You are beautiful and deserve to know it is true!” or “Every BODY is beautiful.”

Erin Burke, a student here at WA, said, ” I have found these notes. They are kind of random, but I guess they brighten the mood of the day”.

Danice Lin, another female student at WA thought that they were very sweet and helpful.

The editor of Operation Beautiful, Caitlin, said that the mission of Operation Beautiful is to post anonymous notes in public places for other women to find.

Some people heard about this website after reading entries in a website called Gives Me Hope. Some people said they found these notes that “gave them hope”.

It really makes people happy to know that there are people in the world who care about everyone around them.
