Double your donation. Help girls finish school.

Give £25. Make it £50. At no extra cost to you.

1–8 December 2026 | Big Give Christmas Challenge

Girls in Kampala are studying hard and working towards their ambitions. Your donation helps cover the school fees, books and exam costs that can stand between them and finishing school.

For one week this December, every £1 you give through our Big Give campaign page will unlock another £1 from our match funder.

£10 becomes £20 - £25 becomes £50 - £50 becomes £100 at no extra cost to you

“I’ve been working hard every evening. I want to become a journalist... and show that we’re capable of so much more than people think.”

Aisha, Awamu supported student

Aisha has plans for her future. So do the girls studying to become nurses, engineers and teachers.

They’re putting in the work. But determination alone cannot pay school fees or buy the books they need. When money runs out, girls can leave school before earning the qualifications they have spent years working towards.

You can help make sure the barriers she faces don’t bring that hard work to a halt.

They’re backing girls’ education. Will you join them?

The Coles-Medlock Foundation is backing Awamu’s work to help girls finish school. Together with our generous pledge supporters, they’re providing match funding to make your donation go twice as far.

Your gift unlocks theirs, helping us turn the funding available into practical support for girls.

Together, we’re aiming to raise £26,000, including matched funding to get girls over the line.

What will your donation help pay for?

Your support helps provide the things girls need to keep learning and finish school:

  • School fees, so they can continue attending lessons.

  • Books and learning materials, so they have the tools to study.

  • Exam fees, so they can sit the exams they have worked towards.

  • Mentoring and wellbeing support, with someone to turn to when difficulties arise.

Girls bring their determination, ideas and ambitions. Your support helps create the opportunities to put them into action.

One donation. Twice the funding.

Your £25 becomes £50 towards helping girls finish school.

To have your donation doubled, give through our dedicated Big Give campaign page between midday on Tuesday 1 December and midday on Tuesday 8 December 2026.

Donations are matched pound for pound while match funding remains available.
