Zoë backs She Grows appeal, ‘an amazing opportunity to help women’ in Africa

8 April 2019 19:41

If you heard Zoë’s Radio 4 fundraising appeal for TREE AID in January, you’ll know how passionate she is about the charity’s work to help disadvantaged communities in Africa’s drylands.

Now Zoë, a patron of TREE AID, is encouraging people to support the charity’s latest fundraising initiative: the She Grows appeal, which she calls ‘an amazing opportunity to help women’ affected by poverty. Its aim is to provide women in Mali, West Africa, with the training and tools they need to turn tree products into both nourishing food and goods to sell. In other words, She Grows will help women to ‘grow’ their way out of poverty.

The best bit is that if you donate to She Grows by 30 June 2019, your gift will be matched by the UK government, enabling TREE AID to make an even greater positive impact with its work.

You can make a donation online, by calling 0117 909 6363 or sending a cheque to Freepost TREE AID.

If you’d like to find out more about the charity, this video, narrated by Zoë, will help.
