Financial Support

This Essay Contest for Our Children is entirely funded by Africans in the Diaspora – from the Caribbean, U.K. and the U.S.A.

With the goal of raising the £1,625 required to make up the prizes to Our children, I personally invited individuals within the African Diaspora whether they would be willing to support a London child of African descent.

A very special THANK YOU to all those below who have unselfishly chosen to make a financial contribution to the Essay Contest for Our Children.

Philly - Thank you for your prompt support - just as you said you would.
