Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
We are starting this page to help raise money towards action aids first hand Kenya experience, myself and my mum Jacqui will be giving our time to travel to Africa and be hands on and help and work alongside the local people to build a much needed support centre which will make a life changing difference for young girls in Bamburi.
Violence against women and girls is one of the most widespread abuses and it affects 1 in 3 girls world wide, in Mombasa there are high levels of child pregnancy and child marriage preventing girls from finishing their education and living the lives they want.
This centre will help these young girls who have experienced violence get the essential medical and psychological help to aid their recovery and legal help to stop the perpetrators. It will give them a voice and the confidence to speak out and seek to enjoy their right to a safe and supportive education and future life.
This is a charity my mum has been supporting for many years and is very close to her heart. As well as using our own efforts to build this centre, we need to raise £3000 each towards the costs of building materials and other essentials to make this project achievable.
Any funds you can donate will be greatly appreciated.
Also look out for our other family fundraising events we will be holding throughout the year to help towards this target.
Thank you all for your support. Xx
