Story

If I float, I'll swim a lap of the Serpentine in Hyde Park this Saturday to help raise money for Cecily's fund. 

Cecily's Fund supports orphans and vulnerable children affected by HIV/AIDS in Zambia. It was founded in 1998 in memory of Cecily Eastwood, my colleague's sister, who was killed in a road accident in Zambia. She had been working with a local organisation supporting young orphans. Since its formation, Cecily's Fund has helped thousands of vulnerable Zambian children gain an education and improve their lives. You can find out more about their amazing work at http://www.cecilysfund.org/

About the charity

RCN 1071660
Since 1998 Cecily's Fund has transformed the lives of thousands of the most vulnerable children in Zambia by enabling them to go to school. Education gives them a ladder out of the destitution to which they are otherwise condemned. Tragically Cecily died there in her gap year. This is her legacy.
