Supporting youth of Uganda
Donation protected
UPDATE: Thank you to all who have given money to me directly. I have adjusted the "goal total" here to reflect that.
Hi everyone,
I've never used gofundme before, however I have decided to post this as I really believe in this fundraiser and believe others would want the opportunity to support me.
I am fundraising for the young people of Uganda, for the benefit, wellbeing and furtherment of education for the students.
I am going on a humanitarian trip to Uganda in February 2024 to work in partnership with Ugandaid and the Nile Vocational Institute. These organizations sponsor young people (the poorest of the poor, the most vulnerable in society) through vocational training, but also look to support their welfare.
I will be involved in supporting the young people by completing projects to improve the infrastructure and equipment for their use, as well as supporting the students according to their needs. Money raised will go towards:
1. Refurbishing classrooms for the students (which haven't been worked on in 25 years).
2. Kitting out students with tools and equipment (e.g., scissors, sewing machines, etc).
3. Funding the trip so I can go and complete practical projects to aid the young people
Any money raised above the goal amount will be used will be used towards sponsoring more Ugandan students so they can attend the Nile Vocational Institute and develops skills and an occupation.
If you believe in this cause, I would really appreciate your support in making this happen!
Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and consider supporting the young peoples of Uganda!
