🏔️ Sophie conquered Mount Kenya. Can you help her conquer her fundraising goal?

Our Chair of Trustees, Sophie Tanner, completed an incredible climb in June and has already raised £900 of her £1,500 target. With just £600 to go, we're hoping to reach her goal by the end of July.

Your donation will help fund one month of Seed of Hope training and support for 30 young people as they begin vocational courses and build the skills, confidence and independence they need to thrive.

Every gift, no matter the size, brings us closer to giving more young people the opportunity to gain life-changing skills.

For 20 years, Millennium Consulting has been a valued partner, helping us support young people through our Seed of Hope vocational and business skills training programme, raising vital funds through their Charity Golf Days; a wonderful annual event which has helped change the trajectory of hundreds of young lives in Kenya!

The event on 17 June raised a mighty £5,000! An incredible amount, which can fund 20 students through Seed of Hope courses.

Phil Keet, Founder and CEO of Millennium Consulting, said:
"Over the last two decades, these events have brought together clients, partners and friends to raise vital awareness and funds for the Seed of Hope programme. The young people of Kenya possess immense potential, and seeing the tangible, long-lasting impact this partnership continues to have on their lives, families and communities is deeply rewarding."

Long-term partnerships like this are vital. They provide the consistency, trust and shared commitment needed to create lasting change.

Thank you to for twenty years of hope, opportunity and impact.

We're proud of the incredible number of 14-25 year olds who complete their Seed of Hope training each year. But beyond the numbers are powerful human stories, like Teresia’s, a Seed of Hope Hairdressing & Beauty graduate from Kitui county.

After graduating, Teresia said: “Life changed quickly for me when I became a mother. With responsibility coming early, I knew I had to find a way to create a better future for myself and my child.”

“I wanted more than survival, I wanted stability, dignity, and hope. [..] Seed of Hope gave me more than technical skills; it gave me mentorship, life skills, and emotional support that helped me believe in myself again.”

“Today, I am proudly running my own business, earning an income, and providing for my child. My journey is proof that with the right support and determination, transformation is possible”.

You can hear Teresia share her experience of Seed of Hope's young mother's saving scheme in a short video here: https://buff.ly/CWNvTs4 (0:57)

SHE DID IT! We are so proud of Sophie! She battled steep terrain, thin air and freezing temperatures, to summit Mount Kenya - a monumental challenge taken on to raise funds to help create brighter futures for children and young people across Kenya. We are inspired to have her as both our Chair and a champion of our mission.

Thank you to everyone who has donated so far. If you're inspired by Sophie's challenge, you can still support young people to reach their own goals by donating to her JustGiving page: https://buff.ly/XwccEHi
