Vision Africa is taking part in the “Global Giving” challenge to win a permanent spot on their website. If successful, this will provide an excellent opportunity for us to raise funds for our projects.

Global Giving logoFor those who are not familiar with Global Giving it is an online marketplace that connects donors to the causes and countries they care about. You select the projects you want to support, make a contribution, and get regular progress updates – so you can see your impact.

In order to earn our place on the Global Giving site, we have been challenged to raise

$4,000through a minimum of 50 donors in just 1 month

Our chosen project is the training of 300 destitute teenage girls at our 4 Seed of Hope centres throughout Kenya. We are asking our supporters to help us in this challenge and in doing so, help us to change the lives of these girls by empowering them and giving them an independent future.

We only have until the 18th September to get to the finishing line. Please help put us in pole position by visiting our project on Global Giving and see how you can have a positive impact on the lives of our students, their families and their communities.
