Clara Barton (1821 – 1912)

Civil Rights Activist, USA

Clara Barton is one of the most celebrated women in American history. She risked her life to bring supplies and support to soldiers in the field during the Civil War. Like many women, she helped collect bandages and other much-needed supplies, but she soon realized that she could best support the troops by stepping out of her comfort zone and going in person to the battlefields. Talk about a leading lady! Throughout major battles of the war, brave and determined, she nursed, comforted, and cooked for the wounded, earning the nickname the “Angel of the Battlefield.”

She founded the American Red Cross in 1881, at age 59, and led it for the next 23 years. Her life was driven by the desire to help people in distress. By the force of her personal example, she sparked a fire in women and people around the world to donate their time for a bigger purpose through volunteer work. Her intense devotion to serving others resulted in enough achievements to fill several ordinary lifetimes. She is a role model for Pixie Cup’s mission to give back and empower others through our Buy One Give One program.

Gertrude Ederle (1905-2003)

Swimmer, USA

Gertrude Ederle was born in New York City on October 23, 1905. She was a champion swimmer by her late teen years, and she competed for the first time in the 1924 Olympics. In 1926, she became the first woman to swim the English Channel, the 21 miles of water between England and the European mainland! Her record-breaking achievement brought her fame and acclaim. Five male swimmers had already crossed the channel, but she wanted to be the first woman to achieve this goal. She held the record for 24 years after her 1926 feat and was regarded as the ‘Queen of the waves’. She very simply said:

Wangari Maathai (1940-2011)

Activist, Kenya

A renowned social, environmental and political activist, Wangari fought for causes close to her heart. Wangari was a visionary! Her hard work paid off as she was the first woman in East & Central Africa to earn a doctorate degree. (Crazy to think about, right?) She set up the Green Belt Movement, a conservation-based not-for-profit in 1977, and later became a parliament member. Wangari placed no limits on her life and was given 13+ awards. One of which was a Nobel Prize as the first African woman to win it. She said it perfectly:

Junko Tabei (1939-2016)

Mountaineer, Japan

Junko Tabei was born in Kawagoe Japan in 1939. Her interest in mountaineering was ignited by a classroom mountain-climbing expedition when she was a child. By 1992 Tabei had become the first woman to summit the highest mountain on each of the seven continents—the so-called Seven Summits. In addition, she attempted to reach the top of the highest mountain in each country, and she conquered some 70 of the peaks on that list! She later became an environmental advocate and completed graduate studies at Kyushu University, studying the impact of the garbage left on mountains by climbers. As encouragement, Junko said,

Jean Batten (1909-1982)

Aviator, New Zealand

Beating record after record, Jean Batten is one of the most decorated pilots in history, especially for women. In November 1935 she became the first woman to fly herself across the South Atlantic. In October 1936 she went one step further and made the first ever direct flight from England to New Zealand. She broke records for journeys from England to Australia, England to Brazil, and made the first solo flight from England to New Zealand in her trusty Gipsy Moth plane. The name of the plane was incredibly fitting as Jean created a life for herself all over the globe. Never staying too long in one place, she believed adventure was out there and had her sights set on breaking any norm society placed on her. She famously said:
