We are temporarily experiencing some issues with processing donations in Pounds Sterling. We appreciate your patience during this time and apologise for any inconvenience caused. While we work to resolve this issue, you can donate via our JustGiving page. If you have any queries, please email [email protected].
With the threat of COVID-19 forcing schools in many countries to close, we know from experience that girls will be hardest hit. They are least likely to return to school and are vulnerable to an increased risk of early marriage and adolescent pregnancy. Your support can help us continue to be there for girls and women through this crisis and after.
"We must act now to so that millions of vulnerable children, especially the poorest girls, can resume learning when this crisis is over.”- The Hon Julia Gillard AO, 27th Prime Minister of Australia and Patron of CAMFED

What your money achieves
Your generosity pays for our Safety Net Fund, which ensures that the most vulnerable girls and boys in rural communities have what they need for primary school. It provides bursaries so that girls – who often miss out on a vital secondary education – can go to high school and stay there. And it provides resources like text books and computers for schools, as well as training teacher mentors and parents support groups so they can help children to stay in school.
It will also help supply small business grants and give training in areas like healthcare, finance and teaching to our growing network of young leaders in the CAMFED Assocation, so that they can become independent, influential women.
