Action aid is a charity that supports women and women's
rights in third world countries, 
ActionAid believes that “The denial of women’s and girls’ rights is one of the biggest causes of poverty worldwide and a grave injustice. That’s why we
put the rights of women and girls at the heart of all we do.

1 in 10 women around the world first experienced street harassment before the age of 10

24% the amount less that women get paid globally on average than men

5 women every hour die as a result of domestic violence

70million girls are married before the age of 18, often against their will

In August 2020 I will be taking part in the Rwanda First Hand
Experience, the funds I raise, and the hands-on support I will be involved in will make a life-changing difference to the children of Groupe Scolaire, Muko
.

I’ve always been someone who believed in standing up for others, but so far, apart from giving money to a range of charities and pressing the like button, and retweeting articles. I feel I haven’t really helped anyone, with ActionAid I feel I will finally be able to help a community and make a real difference.  

I want to support a charity where we can build and change the way girls in Rwanda see their futures and have a better education.


Thank you for your support. 

Sam :)
