Little by Little Giving Campaign

The Anita, Alex & Annabel Nicholson Memorial Fund and The Atlas Foundation are excited to be taking part in Global Giving’s “Little by Little” campaign, running from 13th September to 16th September!

During the campaign, all donations up to $50 will be matched at 50% to The Anita, Alex & Annabel Nicholson Memorial Fund, so please give what you are able to and watch your donation go further in supporting vulnerable children.

Khelo Rugby are our wonderful partners in India who combine their passion for rugby with a determination to improve the lives of every child they work with. Since they’ve started their passion for education the graduation rates have flourished from 18% to 80%.

The Anita, Alex and Annabel Nicholson Memorial Fund and The Atlas Foundation have partnered with Studycat who offers fantastic learning programmes, they have generously donated their software and together with Khelo Rugby a bespoke individual learning programme has been created to help the children learn English putting them at an educational advantage. This pilot group consists of 20 children, but we would like to reach more. Your donations will help secure the software and materials needed to fund the second round of our educational pilot please give what you can and share our mission in helping all the children to thrive!

See the link below; after the campaign is finished, the Anita, Alex and Annabel Nicholson Memorial Fund will still accept donations that will be used to support the work of our Asian charities and the fantastic partnership with Studycat.
