Take action today

Your support today can help a girl to secure an education. She’ll be able to create the future she imagines — for herself, for her community, and for Africa.

Whether you make a donation, take part in an event, or fundraise with friends, there are lots of ways to take action for girls’ education.

As well as paying school fees and other essentials, such as uniforms, books, and menstrual products, your support helps beyond the classroom, supporting young graduates with the training and resources they need to become economically independent leaders in their communities.

When you educate one girl, you educate many

Every girl you support through CAMFED will go on to help at least three others to go to school, multiplying your impact far into the future.
