New Year's Update


Happy New Year! As we move into this New Year, first and foremost I would like thank all those that have sponsored me thus far. The support, kind words and generosity have touched me and I truly am blessed to have so many people believe in me and the work that I do. Thank you!

So far I have raised $970! My goal now is just $1530.00 by February 1st! Will you help me meet that goal? I can’t do it without you! If you would like to sponsor me and my service learning trip to Uganda please use the donate button on the side bar or mail your check to the address below.

In other news I have been doing a lot of independent research on the history of Uganda with a real focus on health and social policy. I have included a few links to some of the more poignant information that I felt others might find interesting. Enjoy!
