In early January, we shared about Elizabeth's receiving her first year's tuition thanks to the generosity of donors like you. Elizabeth has started college and is doing well. She reminds us in this video that girls' education matters.
Hi, my name is Elizabeth. I’m a beneficiary of Develop Africa and I am in my first year studying BSC in nursing at the university of medicine. When you educate a girl child you educate a nation, when you educate a girl child, she will be an asset. She will bring opportunities to the table.
When you give up to $50 to support girls' education, GlobalGiving will match your generosity at 50% for the #LittleByLittle campaign and if you set up a new monthly donation of up to $50, GlobalGiving will match your gift twice! Don't delay, the Little by Little campaign ends at 11:59 pm EDT!
Here's how the double match works:
Set up a monthly donation today and GlobalGiving will match it by 50% now, then after your fourth consecutive monthly gift in August, you'll unlock an additional one-time match at 100%!
Thank you for helping educate and empower girls and young women in Sierra Leone, like Elizabeth. When we all work together, there’s no limit to what we can do.
If you have any questions, please feel free to email us at GlobalGiving@developafrica.org.
With great appreciation,
Amy & the Develop Africa Team
