Rose and Elizabeth have started senior school solely through the money this challenge has raised. We have pledged to continue their education for their full four years of schooling and although we are still short of our target donations and small fundraising events are slowly helping us reach the target and in time we will ensure this is possible for the girls.
Since a visit made by Kate (Jalia's founder), over the christmas period, by we have received hand written cards from each of the girls thanking everyone who has helped make this possible, stating just what it means for them to be educated, along with what they hope to achieve with their education.
Rose hopes to become a Lawyer, whilst Elizabeth is aiming to be a doctor.
In the last week the Brazilian Embassy organised and ran a Swimathon to raise funds for Jalia and the continued support for the education of young females. They too have a donations page and a short film made by her colleagues and friends in Brasilia.

All that remains for us to say is THANK YOU for all you have given so far, and lets hope Fiona's Legacy continues to grow in supporting Jalia educate Kenyan girls...
