- The Campaign for Female Education (Camfed)
-
Camfed is dedicated to fighting poverty and HIV/AIDS in rural Africa by educating girls and investing in their economic independence and leadership once they complete school. Since 1993, Camfed has been working in partnership with rural communities in Africa to set in motion a virtuous cycle of change.

The supporter who recruits the most people will travel to Africa to see Camfed’s work firsthand, sharing the experience with the rest of us via live reports on Twitter.
- Where the Water Meets the Sky
-
Camfed is committed to providing girls and women with the tools to tell their own stories, in their own voices. In our first documentary film, Oscar-winning actor Morgan Freeman narrates the story of a remarkable group of women in Northern Zambia as they learn the art of filmmaking and find the courage to change their lives.
- Investing in Education: the Multiplier Effect
-
Camfed’s work provides direct evidence for the growing consensus among global leaders that girls’ education is the single best investment that can be made in developing countries. 645,400 children across four countries benefited from Camfed’s education programs. And the young women who have been supported through school by Camfed go on to reinvest the benefits of their education in their communities.
