Fundraising for Lenana Girls High School

In February 2024, Mulberry Schools Trust was contacted by Lenana Girls High School in Kenya about taking part in Global Girl Leading. Lenana is a boarding school near Nairobi that was set up by the charity Common Ground for Africa. It supports orphaned, vulnerable and dispossessed girls aged 11-22.

Throughout 2024, students from Lenana have taken part in a range of Global Girl Leading activities including Letters to Our Daughters and Speakers’ Corner. They will now be coming to London in October 2025 to take part in the next Global Girl Leading conference.

In order to support the visit, students from across Mulberry Schools Trust led an amazing series of fundraising events, raising over £5000. This incredible effort means that Mulberry will be able to support the Lenana students’ visit and make it a life-changing experience for them and students in Mulberry schools.

Thank you to everyone who got involved!
