Alison Jones-Shaw is raising money for The Girls' Network

A&K Changing lives · 14 August 2022

The Girls’ Network aims to inspire & empower girls aged 14 to 19 from the least advantaged communities by connecting them to a mentor & a network of professional female role models. We support around 1000 girls a year in London, Merseyside, Hampshire, Sussex, the North East & the West Midlands.

Story

Hey everyone, you’ve successfully found Ali & Kerry's' just
giving page. From here you can support our fantastic cause and help us reach our target. In 2022 we will be fundraising for The Girls Network and traveling to Kenya (woohoo).

We are delighted to have been selected to take part in a Volunteer Abroad Scholarship through Sage Foundation! Whilst in Kenya we will help empower women in under resourced communities, through income generating projects, education and skills training.

Part of our challenge is to fundraise for a UK charity which mirrors the project abroad and we have chosen to fundraise for The Girls' Network. The charity support girls in under privileged areas to fulfil their full potential. They believe that no girls should have their futures limited by their gender, ethnicity, background, or parental income and they believe that all girls should be supported to realise their ambitions, to discover their self-worth, and to develop their capacity to shape their world and their future. This is a project  close to our hearts having daughters and we are excited to be able to make a difference.

We will be doing lots of fundraising activities that will push us out of our comfort zone from Walking/mountain climbing to bake sales. You’ll be able to support us in so many ways and every donation will make a huge difference to our cause.

We thank you for viewing our page and even more for donating #A&kchanginglives - corny we know but true!

*Our target has now been updated to reflect our aim of reaching £2400 before we travel and with thanks to a £250 donation made from Essity UK direct to the charity on our behalf.
