THANKYOU!

£1 from you, we get two! Amazing News from our winter match funding campaign

We are thrilled to announce that in February, our annual match funding campaign ‘£1 from you, we get two’, has hit its target a month early and raised an incredible £146,587!

Considering the economic difficulties which have affected us all throughout 2022, we are truly humbled by the kindness and generosity shown by our amazing supporters, who continue their unwavering support for the world’s most vulnerable people.

Moving for Lepra

The wonderful Sheila and her son Anthony from sunny west Scotland took on a 5k walk to raise funds for Lepra’s work. Sheila told us that finding a dry Saturday in December proved trickier than the walk itself! We are absolutely thrilled to have Sheila’s support and pass on a huge thanks.

The money that Sheila and Anthony raised is enough to pay for a village exhibition to reach 100 people with vital key health messages, and help people affected by leprosy start their journey of treatment and recovery.

Contact AbiW@lepra.org.uk if you would like to tell us about your fundraising ideas and events!

This staggering amount will enable Lepra to continue it’s vital work in hard to reach communities, where it’s needed most.

Tens of thousands of forgotten people will benefit from the proceeds of this campaign. It is enough to run an entire project like UPLIFT, CHAI or ASPIRE for the duration of 3 years.

On behalf of the communities we serve, our deepest and most sincere THANK YOU for your ongoing support. With your help, we WILL beat leprosy!
