Hi Everyone
I am heading to Uganda in August to volunteer with I Am Someone, a not-for-profit organisation running grassroot community projects for vulnerable, abandoned children across Africa.
It’s something close to my heart I have been looking to get into for a while now, and this year all the pieces have started coming together.
I will be in Kasese (Southwest Uganda) from 8th-31st August 2024, doing all kinds of works – labouring, painting, admin, teaching, sports activities, and my personal favourite….storytelling.
The organisation has asked each volunteer to raise at least $2,500. All proceeds go directly to the projects we are partnering with to make a difference. (Project fundraising is seperate to personal expenses including flights, food, local transport etc.)
Where will your money go?
- employment of tradespeople
- building materials
- furniture, bedding, mosquito nets
- kitchen equipment
- seeds, plants and garden supplies
- school supplies
- clothing and personal items for children
- employment for childcare workers
Please support their work by donating to my CrowdRaiser. I know they will appreciate every cent received, as do I.
In closing, I would be very grateful if you could share the link to this CrowdRaiser page to your friends and family. The more people who can help the better!
Thank you
John
