This September, Matthew will embark on a life-changing journey, walking the full 148 miles Thames Path in England. But this is more than just a walk. Every mile he covers is a mile of hope for Rainbow's End, a girls' hostel by El Shaddai Charitable Trust, where vulnerable young women can finally find safety, stability, and the freedom to dream.
Across India, too many girls grow up in circumstances where childhood is stolen too soon. Poverty, abandonment, and unsafe environments leave them without shelter, without security, and without access to education. For these girls, the future often feels like a locked door.
Rainbow's End is that key. A dedicated girls' hostel designed to be more than just a shelter - it will be a sanctuary. A place where: Dreams are nurtured with quality education Safety and dignity replace fear and uncertainty Emotional and mental well-being are prioritized A strong foundation is built for independent, empowered futures Funds raised through Matthew's journey will go directly towards: Building the hostel infrastructure
Every step Matthew takes along the winding Thames is a promise that no girl should ever feel forgotten. With your support, we will transform lonely nights into safe homes, empty hands into hopeful futures, and silence into voices that can change the world. Together, we can ensure that Rainbow's End lives up to its name, a place where, after the storm, every girl finds her rainbow.
