An American volunteer devoted to the school in Uganda needs funds to make the trip with me in January. We need to oversee the small businesses that we are funding through a Micro-Finance project we started this year. Right now 55 women have been trained and have business plans; 12 loans have been given so far and are making a huge difference in the lives of these families. The trip costs $2300,including air fare, accommodations and all other expenses with a cushion for other unexpected expenses while there (there always are some). I need to raise this money by the end of October. Volunteers are the best link we have to the ongoing work we are doing in Uganda.
