Story

We are holding a virtual raffle on Friday 12th March to raise money for The Girls Network. 

The minimum donation is £1.50, and you can donate more should you wish to do so. Once you’ve made your donation, please email lisa.dyson@amvbbdo.com so that you can
be entered into the raffle.

There’s four amazing prizes up for grabs from female-led businesses and artists! 

A bit more from The Girls' Network:

Cancelled lessons, cancelled exams, cancelled work experience… “It will be OK” for some, but not for all. Because of Covid-19, the least advantaged young people across the UK are worried they’ll miss out on deserved grades, they stand to lose £40k each in lifetime earnings, and their mental health is at a 12-year low.

At The Girls’ Network we never stopped working tirelessly to match the girls that need it most with an inspiring, motivating and committed mentor. Since March 2019 we matched ​1319 girls with a mentor and trained ​1522 women​ to become mentors. It works. ​98% ​of girls mentored during the pandemic said their mentor helped them feel more positive about their future,​ 81% said mentoring helped them focus more on virtual school work, and teachers called the programme ​a “lifeline”​ for their worst-off pupils. One girl said ​“my mentor helped me find myself when I was completely lost.”

But we simply cannot carry on without your help. This International Women’s Day, we’re asking you to​ help us reach more girls.
