Dear family and friends,
Thank you for showing interest in our expedition and protecting our environment.
As many of you know, I can’t resist a challenge, especially if it is in icy climes and for a great cause:)
In March 2020, I will be joining a group of intrepid women on an expedition to Greenland! We will cycle 200km across snow & ice along the Arctic Circle Trail where temperatures can drop to –30 degrees..... It’s the first time this will be attempted by an all female team!
Our aim is to raise awareness and funds for under-privileged women impacted by climate change in Asia.
Our expedition is entirely self-funded, which means that 100% of the funds raised here will go to UN Women.
UN Women is the only global organisation dedicated to gender equality and the empowerment of women and girls. Founded in 2010, they work at every level, to change the way the world works for women.
With your generous support, we can make a difference:
+ $25 could provide leadership and self-esteem workshops to women and girls to give them the skills and confidence to response to these climate risk challenges.
+ $100 could help to set up livelihood projects that empower women business leaders in agriculture to manage their business in at risk areas.
+ $500 could help us to work with government to develop Post-Disaster Needs Assessments to inform disaster recovery strategies and national disaster management planning
+ $1000 could allow us to keep a safe house open for women and children fleeing natural disaster for one week.
ANY amount is greatly appreciated. Thank you so much in advance for your generosity!
