BIG GIVE UPDATE: YOU SMASHED IT!
Incredible! Together we’ve smashed our target. Now we can push ahead with our plans to create our new ‘Nansamba Safe Haven’ – a dedicated safe space for girls who have experienced sexual violence in the slum of Kampala. Thank you to everyone who gave so generously.
As a small charity every single donation, share and word of support makes a huge difference. It is so inspiring to see what we can achieve together.
Our Safe Haven will be a vital lifeline
Because of you girls will find not just safety, but a supportive community to help them heal. This includes medical care, psychological support and access to legal professionals.
Our Safe Haven will be staffed and led by local women - experts in their field who know best how to create lasting change. Many are survivors of violence themselves.
I will leave you with the words of a young woman I spoke to last week who told me about the support she got from our team in Kampala:
“Whenever I think I can’t go on they [the team] hold me up. They are there to support me. I am so thankful to have them on my side”
And we are so grateful to have you by our side. Thank you.
We will be in touch soon with updates on the progress in Kampala.
Thank you for everything.
