Hello!

You can make a one-off donation here to support Stepping Stones Nigeria, the UK charity featured in Channel 4's Dispatches programme: 'Saving Africa's Witch Children'.

If you wish to make a regular monthly donation please go to www.justgiving.com/steppingstonesnigeria.

We have been completely overwhelmed by the support that kind people like you have offered us. So much so that we have had to raise our fundraising target twice already!!! We are so grateful for all of your kindness. It really is inspiring.

Your donation will go directly towards helping protect, save and transform the lives of the children featured in the film and the countless others that have been abandoned due to the belief in child 'witches'. Your support will also help us carry out enlightenment and advocacy projects throughout the region, so that a long-term solution to the child 'witch' crisis may be found.

Please donate now to make this possible.

With much love and thanks,

Gary Foxcroft
Programme Director - Stepping Stones Nigeria
