Clé de Peau Beauté has launched ‘The Power of Radiance’ program — a multi-year philanthropic commitment that honors inspirational women from around the world whose advocacy for women and girls’ education has led to positive long-term impact on lives.

Muzoon Almellehan, UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador and Education Activist, received the program’s first-ever Power of Radiance Award. Almellehan will receive a grant that can be donated to a cause of her choice, in support of educational initiatives for women and girls.

The award was presented by Masahiko Uotani, president and group CEO of Shiseido Group; Yukari Suzuki, chief brand officer for Clé de Peau Beauté; and Felicity Jones, Clé de Peau Beauté global brand ambassador.

Felicity Jones comments, “I know how fortunate I was to have had access to a great education. This is not the case for everyone around the world, which is why I am so proud to be part of the Power of Radiance program, and support every person’s right to knowledge and learning. It is through accomplishment that we can aspire to shine in a way that truly lights up the world.”

Almellehan comments, “Education is the most potent equalizer of opportunity. And for nations, investing in quality education for children and young people creates the foundation for more peaceful and prosperous families, communities and economies. I will never stop speaking out for those whose voices have been silenced for too long, until every child is in school and learning.”

Suzuki adds, “I am humbled to have the opportunity to celebrate the inspirational radiance of women who are effecting change through the empowering path of Education and am honored to celebrate the light that they shine on others.”
