Story

In August 2011, I shall be flying all the way to a small town in the Teso region of Uganda called Ngora for 2/3 weeks. I shall be working with The Edith's Home Project which is a charity that works with total HIV/AIDS orphans. 

There are over 100 kids at the orphanage and have been orphaned for a variety of reasons such as AIDS, poverty and war. Due to the area lacking resources, the children are put to the bottom of the pile. Thanks to Edith's Home, the children now have sponsorships of school fees and vocational training. More importantly, the charity provides the children with love!

For the duration of those 2/3 weeks, I will be running a summer camp for the children, providing them with love, laughter and lots of fun! These children had nothing.. so it means the world to them to receive the loving and attention that they soo deserve!

Unfortunately, the flights for me to get to Uganda are VERY expensive and so this is where you can come in and help. I need to raise roughly £1,300, any donations towards this large sum of money would be greatly appreciated! Big or small.. it all adds up.

Thanks, Hope :)
