More than £1.5m raised for charity supporting Orthodox girls
8,700 donors gave to the match-funding campaign to support Noa
A charity supporting adolescent girls in the Orthodox community has raised more than £1.5million in a matched-funding campaign.
Noa Girls, reached the original target of £1 million at the 12 hour point, achieving the objective of being able to cater for the 58 girls that were on its waiting list.
An additional ‘bonus round’ of money will go to providing further support. In total some 8,700 individuals donated to the campaign.
Chief executive Naomi Lerer said: “While the funds are life changing for Noa and the girls we can now support, equally transformative was the outpouring of support from the community and the message of solidarity and encouragement this gives.”
