This month, Girls & Football SA was selected to be one of the featured projects in the Girl Effect/Global Giving Challenge. As HUGE fans of the Girl Effect (check out their work – a definite must-see) we’ve been honored to be a part of this challenge and even more excited about being one of the 12 projects to win! Throughout the month we were amazed by all the support we received from around the globe, through donations, help spreading the word about the challenge and interest in our work.

We are very grateful for all your kind donations and support. As we reached out to our community of supporters and followers, we are thankful for all the help we received from those of you who re-posted, re tweeted, donated and visited our YouTube channel. Your help spreading the word via social media was amazing and we hope you enjoyed reading articles, watching clips and following some of our recommended content!

We want to particularly thank;

– UN Volunteers and Partners of the Americas for the opportunity granted to Girls & Football SA to present during the 2nd World Summit on Youth Volunteering in Colombia
