In February 2022, our group completed the challenge of a life time by climbing the tallest mountain in Africa, Mount Kilimanjaro to raise funds to support young leaders in Africa and Asia to take on the greatest challenges they face.

The Power Up Appeal: Everything you donate will be matched!

Anything you donate between 7 March and 6 June for Restless Development will be matched pound for pound by the UK government, supporting more girls to go to school, get their education and build their careers.

The power of education can be life changing, helping girls shape their own future, on their terms. But in many countries, girls are being held back. There are lots of barriers stopping women and girls from getting their education, and the pandemic is only making things worse. It is estimated over 20 million girls may not return to school. Girls who are held back face problems with their confidence, literacy, financial support and support from parents and schools to stay in school.

Through training and support for out of school girls and their communities, the Power Up Appeal is helping to make sure more girls in Sierra Leone and around the world can claim the education and opportunities they have a right to.

When girls stay in school, when their right to their education is fulfilled, they can determine their own future.

Thank you so much for your support! Any donations you make to this page will contribute to this appeal from March 7th.

Thank you for your donation to support our fundraising. Here are just some examples of the important work Restless does:

- Fighting for sexual rights, ending child marriage and AIDS

- Increasing employment and entrepreneurship to tackle poverty and create grassroots businesses.

- Mobilising responses to emergencies like the Nepal earthquake, the Ebola outbreak and the Coronavirus pandemic.

Thank you so much for your support!
