I back this project because the plot covers an important topic in times of social media pressure to fulfill some standards.

I believe in the power of authentic stories. When I discovered Niña Gordita, I immediately knew this project had to exist — because it speaks to what millions of girls silently carry within them. I'm on board because change begins with stories like this one.
