You've Been Matched!

I was so excited to receive an email with the subject 'you've been matched'.  About 6 weeks after applying to sponsor a sister through Women for Women International I received the news that Alice Sifa Fumbo would be my sister.  Alice is from the DRC, is 21 and is married.  I believe she also has children but am not sure to date.

I wanted to thank all of you that supported my in my 30th birthday celebrations - odd as they may have appeared.  And I want to send a special thank you to those of you that also sponsored a woman.  I have not reached my goal to have 30 women sponsored ... yet, BUT 15 women are now better off thanks to you and you know who you are :-)

All my love and so much more x

P.s I would love to hear about your sisters!
