Volunteering trip to Jinja, Uganda · 28 February 2016

We work to improve the education and care given to pre-school children in highly deprived communities in Ghana and Uganda. We work through local government to train and empower mothers to provide better care at home and run educational Play Schemes that give young children a better start in life.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. I am so grateful for any support you are able to give.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

I will be working with Lively Minds local staff, visiting rural villages and teaching mothers to run educational Play Schemes for all the 3-6 year old children in the village. The children in these villages just don't have any of the opportunities that we do here, so these simple Play Schemes make a huge difference - educating children at an early age, when this early kind of education can make so much difference to their future development. The mothers I will be working with have never been
to school, so I'm hoping to make a huge difference to their lives too.
