Morning! 🌞 ☕ Off to London bright and early for the @BFSSCharity conference. BFSS supports Chance for Childhood's work in Ghana 🇬🇭. Today is a great opportunity to hear about the ways in which other organisations are tackling the big challenges in education across the world 🌍

Fascinating presentations this morning on the barriers facing girls in Afghanistan, children in care in the UK, and children in rural Uganda. Boys and girls in all contexts have a right to a quality, inclusive education #BFSSconference2023

Just when so many children are going back to school in the UK, I'm really proud of my brilliant colleagues at Chance for Childhood's new campaign. A small donation could fill a backpack for a child in one of the five African countries in which we work.

"A ceasefire could risk more violence" is a pathetic line that should not be accepted by anyone. 'More violence' is happening every single day. Stop the killing - ceasefire now.

There are just 24 hours to double your impact for children in some of the most vulnerable situations in the world. If you are able to make a donation, big or small, please do - your gift will be matched until midday on Tuesday 5th December! #BigGive

Thrilled to have met with the inspirational Christine and Aaron from @childrenvoice2, alongside my friend and colleague Felicien, to mark the launch a new inclusive education project in North Kivu, the DRC. The project will support 1,200 children affected by conflict.

Because Chance for Childhood is passionate about ensuring local partners are strong, we are thrilled that a grant from the Vitol Foundation is going to help African Women and Youth Action for Development improve their systems, cover some core costs, and pay for an evaluation to showcase their impact to new funders!

As some funding opportunities become more competitive, it's so important to remember your proposals are assessed by real people. Make it easy for them by making your applications interesting 👇👇
