UNIGLOBE Journey Worldwide Chairman’s Circle members have donated USD 17,000 raised at their annual awards gala to Plan Worldwide UK’s Secure Colleges for Refugees in Ethiopia challenge.

Plan Worldwide UK is the worldwide charitable accomplice of UNIGLOBE Journey. Via occasions and group fundraising expeditions, its journey professionals worldwide have raised extra USD 150,000 for Plan Worldwide UK initiatives to assist kids – particularly ladies – to thrive.

The Secure Colleges for Refugees challenge focuses on constructing colleges and early childhood care centres, and strengthening current training providers, in camps for refugees fleeing battle in South Sudan. Half of the estimated 400,000 refugees in camps are underneath the age of 18.

Sam Davies, head of main partnerships at Plan Worldwide UK mentioned: “We’re overwhelmed by the help of the UNIGLOBE household, who’ve been an unbelievable accomplice on our journey to enrolling extra ladies at school and dealing in the direction of gender equality. This beneficiant donation will assist us to offer additional entry to training.” The Chairman’s Circle annual gala recognises high performing businesses within the UNIGLOBE system.
