Thank you

In Uganda, girls like Emily are forced into early marriage and denied access to education. Thanks to supporters like you, more girls in Uganda are getting access to rescue centres, where VSO volunteers are keeping them safe and learning. 

Your support is needed now more than ever. Thank you for standing with us in solidarity and with hope. 

Please share your action and help us to keep our commitments to communities across the world.  

Thank you. Your support matters.
