Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

This July I will be travelling to Uganda with Leeds University Raise and Give Society in order to help improve the lives and education of thousands of children. Working with a British registered Ugandan Charity, Softpower Education, the project I am involved in aims to improve the structures and facilities for primary school children in rural Uganda.

I will be one of 80 student volunteers all joining forces doing anything from laying foundations to painting classrooms and teaching the children. The money I am raising for the Project enables Softpower Education to build and renovate these classrooms so that children from rural communities have the opportunity to be educated in a safe and welcoming environment. 

"Soft Power Education is working with communities in Uganda to improve quality of life through education. Our funding comes from overland groups, independent travellers and sponsors from around the world. Every single penny donated to Soft Power Education goes towards refurbishing and upgrading the schools involved in the programme; the running costs of the two pre-schools; running the Amagezi Education Centre; continuing the work in Murchison; buying building materials and paying for Ugandan labour and staff."

Any donations will make the world of difference and be greatly appreciated so please dig deep and donate now.

Thank you so much,
