Natalie Higgins Foundation
 
 
The Natalie Higgins Fund was set hp in 2008 by Natalie's family and friends in an attempt to carry on the work in Ghana that Natalie had started. The Higgins family would like to thank all those who supported the charity, without which Natalie's work would not have continued and touched the lives of so many people in need.
