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.
