Story
My sister Janet and I are embarking on an incredible journey, trekking the Camino de Santiago in support of The One Woman at a Time Charity. Please help us to make a difference! We'll be joining the charity's founder Jean Anderson, in raising funds and awareness of its mission.
Your donations given in support of our adventure will be passed over in full to the charity. We've funded our own transport, accommodation and food etc already.
Here's what the charity is about:
"Our priority is for women and girls in Kenya, India and the UK who are at risk of forced marriage, Female Genital Mutilation and domestic abuse.
Our aim is to listen to women, hear what they need in terms of educational, emotional and financial support and offer opportunities to create choices. In partnership with local NGOs we offer women and girls grants and bursaries to go to school, university, nursing college and on vocational training courses. Where women have suffered post traumatic stress through gender based violence we offer support and funding for psychologists and TTT therapists (Trauma Through Tapping).
We also aim to improve health and obstetric care and have given medical supplies and funded training for nurses and midwives.
We are funded 100% by charitable support from people like you!"
