Fundraising Goal: £400

I am fundraising for The Borgen Project because addressing global poverty is of the utmost importance. The UK Government have reduced aid spending from 0.7% to 0.5% of GNI, meaning the UK now falls below the UN’s target. This has a significant negative impact on the world’s poor and anything we can do to help address this wrong is important!
