Story


This is my 2022 fundraiser for KICS. I am going to walk a marathon in October. I have volunteered for KICS since 2015 and 2016 I have worked (without pay) almost full time.

I am raising money for the 2022 KICS Literacy Appeal in support of the Women's Empowerment through Literacy Learning project which does just that. 

6-14 September I will be visiting Kashare with fellow trustee, Carol, so will report first hand about the project.

If you can support me, thank you so much. This is a truly inspiring project.

Best wishes, Fiona
