Dear Friend,

 

I would like to share with you a recent Radio 4 appeal made by Graça Machel on behalf of Canon Collins Trust. The appeal was broadcast on 20th March but is still available on the Radio 4 website if you have a chance to listen. Graça Machel tells her own story of how a scholarship transformed her life, and enabled her to become the inspiration and role model she is today. It is a strong endorsement of the power of education, and I do hope you enjoy listening to it.

 

By visiting the Trust’s website you can read more about the women you are helping to support. You can also watch a short video of one of the scholars, and read our Chief Executive’s account of his experiences of recording Mrs Machel.

 

Please follow the link below to hear the appeal on the Radio 4 website:

Thank you once again for your generosity, which has been much appreciated by Graça Machel and all the women whose education has been supported.

Yours sincerely,

Esther Grieder
