We were incredibly pleased with the turnout from our London fundraiser on June 12th. Held at the prestigious 5 Hertford club in Mayfair, our breakfast event was attended by over 30 individuals representing both the public and private sectors.  Mr. Simon Bishop, Special Adviser to the UK Secretary of State for International Development and LTFHC UK Trustee, made opening remarks and LTFHC founder Dr. Amy Lehman continued with an in-depth overview of the organization followed by a Q&A session. Our second UK Trustee, Mr. Sumit Jamuar, was also in attendance.

We’ve had much positive feedback from the event; attendees were intrigued and eager to learn more about the organization and determine ways they could help.

Thanks again to all those who attended our London event!
