With the Lightforce team they aim to create a sustainable community development facility, i.e. one that can fund itself with the sale of vegetables and animals kept and grown on the land as well as helping to construct a nursery, health care centre and vocational training school.</p> <p class="MsoNormal">&nbsp;</p> <p class="MsoNormal">Your donations will go towards sponsoring children in the nursery, particularly for children with special needs. It costs around &pound;20 to send a child to school for a full semester, which includes money towards food, uniforms and healthcare needs whilst there.</p> <p class="MsoNormal">&nbsp;</p> <p class="MsoNormal">Any donations, however small will still make a difference. Whilst the nursery is a new project target for donations, there are still many areas in which Lightforce International is working to make a difference in Uganda. For example, with the healthcare programs Lightforce are involved with it costs just &pound;2 to prevent a mother</p> <p class="MsoNormal">from transmitting HIV/AIDS to its unborn child.</p> <p class="MsoNormal">&nbsp;</p> <p class="MsoNormal">To find out more about what they are up to follow this link</p> <p class="MsoNormal"><a href="http://www.eventsa.com/site/page.aspx?page=475&amp;page_name=HOME+PAGE" target="_blank">http://www.eventsa.com/sit<span style="font-family: &quot;Arial Unicode MS&quot;;"> </span><span style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;;">e/page.aspx?page=475</span>&amp;page_<span style="font-family: &quot;Arial Unicode MS&quot;;"> </span><span style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;;">name=HOME+PAGE</span></a></p> <p class="MsoNormal">&nbsp;</p> <p class="MsoNormal">Thank you in advance for all your support.
