The Commonwealth Girls Education Fund is delighted to be sponsoring a girl from Fiji for the first time in its history. 

The island, which is over 10,000 miles from London, is the furthest place in which the charity sends funds for girls' secondary education.

Thank you to the Fiji High Commission in London for its invaluable support of the CGEF.

On 2 December 2015, the CCL Commonwealth Fair organisers welcomed guests to their traditional thank you party at Marlborough House in London.

This year's fair was another successful event and CCL President, Mrs Nalini Paranavitane presented our Hon Treasurer Ms Judith Fisher with a cheque from the CCL to the Education Fund for £8,000,  which included the proceeds of the raffle and the first stage payment from the 2015 CCL Commonwealth Fair profits.
