Last week I wanted to raise $1,185 to sponsor a year education 📚 for a young girl growing in rural Morocco. We started fundraising May 16th, we surpassed $1,185 in seven days y +$151.16!! THANK YOU to everyone who contribute! Your donations will make a huge difference. 👩🏻🎓 I believe in the next three weeks we can raise another $1,185 to sponsor a second girl. 🙏🏼
My mother was born in rural Morocco with no acces to education. Up to 83% of women and girl in rural areas in Morocco are illiterate, that is almost 50% of the female population in Morocco and many living in poverty.
I spent the last week before the start of the holly month, researching and scouring the internet of a cause we can support. I was delighted to find Education for All. A UK based charity for Moroccan girls.
It is my mission this Ramadan to fundraise another $1,185 in order to sponsor a Moroccoan girl to attend school and live in a boarding house - in a more remote area of the High Atlas 100 km from Marrakech in the town of Talaat n’Yacoub.

My mother m'shallah has raised three wonderful children, 'hamdullah. Each child achieving a University education spanning across the globe, from the UK to the USA, Australia and China. The youngest of them all, (my brother) beginning his doctorate at the end of this year, in'shallah. It is not lost on us the value of education.
Please donate and contribute to a year education of a young girls life this Ramadan. Any donation will make a big difference.
“Real change happens when we invest in girls. Every year, millions of girls are denied an education at a time when it has the power to transform their lives and the world around them. If a girl is able to make it through primary and secondary education, it can help them break the cycle of poverty and it can help put a stop to early and forced marriage.
