Minutes for Mentor Mothers is a unique opportunity for supporters to cycle alongside m2m supporters to discover the stunning landscapes of sub-Saharan Africa, and most importantly meet m2m Mentor Mothers and connect with the inspiring work they do, seeing first-hand how their invaluable support and fundraising is changing lives every day. 

Since it’s inception in 2014, we have cycled 20,000km. Next year, m2m’s supporters are heading to Uganda, hoping to hit the next big milestone, and to  continue on the journey towards a healthier, fairer future.

82% of new infections
among adolescent girls and young women, ages 15–24, globally are among those living in sub-Saharan Africa.¹

3 times
The number of times more likely that young women (aged 15-24) living in sub-Saharan Africa will acquire HIV compared to their male peers of the same age.¹

Women

2 out of 3 mothers
who die during pregnancy or birth are located in sub-Saharan Africa. Most of these deaths are preventable.¹

6 times
The number of times more likely that a woman living with HIV will develop cervical cancer compared to a woman who is HIV-free.²

Non-Communicable Diseases
are on track to become the main cause of mortality in sub-Saharan Africa, accounting for 37% of deaths in 2019.³

Children

1 out of 11 children
born in sub-Saharan Africa dies before age 5—almost 15 times the average in high income countries.¹

More than 400 children a day

Around 80% of all Malaria deaths
in the WHO Africa region in 2020 were among children. Malaria is a treatable and preventable disease, yet children continue to bear the brunt.³

Carols by Candlelight has been a highlight of m2m’s annual calendar since 2017. The special event brings together m2m’s supporters and new friends to create a community of friends, and family. Join us this year to celebrate the richness of so many African cultures through the performances, readings and celebrations on the night.

For friends, families, team Christmas parties, this event welcomes everyone from all walks of life, to welcome the start of the festive season with a celebration inspired by m2m’s heritage and roots on the African continent.

LEARN MORE

Our beloved festive event is back! On Thursday 9 December, mothers2mothers (m2m) will host the fourth edition of our annual Carols by Candlelight concert, in the beautiful setting of St Paul’s Church, Knightsbridge.

Many of the countries where m2m operares have a shared philosophy called Ubuntu, meaning “I am, because we are”. In the spirit of that philosophy—whatever your beliefs and traditions are—join us for a special evening of singing and readings, as we celebrate our shared connections and stand hand in hand with the communities we serve across sub-Saharan Africa this festive season!

This year—which marks our 20th anniversary—our line-up will be inspired by m2m’s African roots, and celebrate all that we have achieved over the last two decades. m2m Ambassador Christian Brassington will lead the celebrity readings, featuring British-Nigerian poet Theresa Lola, British-Ghanaian TV presenter Claudia-Liza Vanderpuije, and writer and podcaster Remi Sadé. Guests will also be entertained by special performances by South-African Jazz vocalist Sandile Gontsana and St Paul’s Church Choir.

Tickets are from £30, and children can attend for free. Book your ticket now!

m2m follows appropriate COVID-19 safety guidelines, and may request additional precautions or safeguards during the event.

Reclaim Gift Aid

Are you a U.K taxpayer?

Add 25% more to your donation at no cost to you. A Gift Aid declaration allows mothers2mothers to claim tax back on eligible donations. It means that for every £1 you donate to mothers2mothers we can claim back 25p, at no extra cost to you.

Yes, I would like to claim Gift Aid

By ticking the "Yes" box, I agree that I would like to Gift Aid my donation and any donations I make in the future or have made in the past 4 years to mothers2mothers. I confirm I am a UK taxpayer and confirm that I have paid or will pay an amount of Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax for each tax year that is at least equal to the amount of tax that all the charities or CASCs that I donate to will reclaim on my gifts for that tax year. I understand that mothers2mothers will reclaim 25p of tax on every £1 that I donate and that Gift Aid cannot be claimed where my family or I recieve a personal benefit. Please notify the charity if you want to cancel this declaration, change your name or home address, or no longer pay sufficient tax on your income and/or capital gains. If you pay Income Tax at the higher or additional rate and want to receive the additional tax relief due to you, you must include all your Gift Aid donations on your Self Assessment tax return or ask HM Revenue and Customs to adjust your tax code.
