My story

I am biking to Paris from London and in the process aim to raise money for charity.

 

I have decided to support my old uni flat mate and his wife, Phil and Belle, with their charity work in Uganda. 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.

 

Your donations will go towards sponsoring children in the nursery, particularly for children with special needs. It costs around £20 to send a child to school for a full semester, which includes money towards food, uniforms and healthcare needs whilst there.

 

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 £2 to prevent a mother

from transmitting HIV/AIDS to its unborn child.

Thank you in advance for all your support. Your valued contribution will make a great difference in the lives of many children and families recovering from 20 years of civil war in Northern Uganda.
