Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit Andrew's JustGiving page.

Andrew thought that future generations were hugely important. When asked about charities, he always wanted to support female education which is why we are supporting CAMFED.

In sub-Saharan Africa, 24 million girls can't afford to go to school. A girl may marry as young as 13 and has a one in 22 chance of dying in childbirth. One in six of her children will die before the age of five. Research shows if you educate a girl she’ll:

  • Earn up to 25% more and reinvest 90% in her family.
  • Be three times less likely to become HIV-positive.
  • Have fewer, healthier children who are 40% more likely to live past the age of five.
