Story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me and my team online.

I am raising funds for Commonwealth Countries League Education Fund.  The charity supports girls through secondary education in commonwealth countries.  Having taught in Zambia at a girls' school, I am very passionate about girls' education and what education can do for young girls and transform their future for the better.  In most countries where education has to be paid for, most pupils appreciate the value of education and will do anything to raise money for school fees.  Parents are desperate to educate their children, but sometimes they have no money to pay, so their children stay at home and the cycle of poverty continues.  You can help break the cycle of poverty by donating to CCL Education fund.  Every penny will help.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Commonwealth Countries League Education Fund will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your support.
