Story

HOW WE USE YOUR DONATIONS: The girls are referred to the Education fund from a diverse network of contacts in the Commonwealth.

The COMMONWEALTH COUNTRIES’
LEAGUE EDUCATION FUND
has sponsored some 2,000 girls in over 30 Commonwealth countries giving them the opportunity to achieve their ambitions, expand their horizons and take their rightful place in the community. Many have gone on to careers in medicine, teaching, tourism, telecommunications and accountancy. Others work in libraries, the legal system, the computer industry and forestry/agriculture. All have developed skills benefiting themselves, their families and their communities; many have a status previously denied to them. The work continues – from Pakistan to Papua New Guinea, Guyana to The Gambia, Bangladesh to Bostwana, The Solomon Islands to St Vincent, Trinidad & Tobago to Tanzania and Ghana to Grenada.
