volunteer school playground build- Gulu.

"We are dying to learn. You can give us money but we will just turn around and buy the fanciest radio we can find, you can give us clothes but in a year it will have holes in it from moths. But give us education and you give us life. You give us a real chance."

On, Sept. 28, I will be starting a journey that will undoubtedly change my life. I will be joining a group of 10 other volunteers headed to Gulu, Uganda to assist in the ongoing build of a primary school program with an amazing organization called Mercy's Village International
(http://www.mercysvillage.org/).

The children of this community often don't have the opportunity to play and feel the joys of childhood so our main focus on this trip will be to build a playground for the school.

Each volunteer is responsible for providing funding for all of their individual travel expenses which include flight, on ground transportation, lodging, and meals. Your donations will assist in my remaining travel expenses and/or the project as a whole.


Every bit is helpful and no donation is too small. Thank you so much for your generosity!!


I can't wait to tell you all about my my travels!
