BIRMINGHAM: In her first statement after being attacked by the Taliban last October, Malala Yousafzai thanked thousands of people around the world who supported her and sent good wishes.

In a message recorded in the days before her most recent operation on Saturday 2 February, Malala spoke of her hopes for the future and the work that she intends to undertake through the charitable fund which has been created and which bears her name - 'The Malala Fund'.

Malala said: "Today you can see that I am alive. I can speak, I can see you, I can see everyone and"¦I am getting better day by day. It's just because of the prayers of people. Because all people – men, women, children – all of them have prayed for me."

"And because of all these prayers God has given me this new life"¦a second life. And I want to serve. I want to serve the people. I want every girl, every child, to be educated. For that reason, we have organised the Malala Fund."

The Malala Fund supports Malala Yousafzai's campaign for the right to education for children across the world. Vital Voices – a global non-governmental organization advancing girls' and women's leadership through training and mentoring – has established the Fund on behalf of Malala and her family, working together with supporters of the cause including The United Nations Foundation, Girl Up, and several other organizations and individuals.

Alyse Nelson, Vital Voices President and CEO said: "We stand with Malala and girls around the globe who are boldly speaking out as advocates for education and equality. When girls move forward, they take their communities forward too."

The Fund supports the education and empowerment of girls in Pakistan and around the world and will provide grants to civil society organizations and individuals focused on education. It will be advised by a committee comprising several education experts and entrepreneurs, as well as Malala and her family.
