Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I'll be travelling to the Bulambuli district in eastern part of Uganda for a 6 months placement as a project coordinator with Communities for Development. I'm going to be working together with the community members on new VSLA initiatives (community-based microsavings groups) as well as helping them start up their own income generating activities.
The NGO supports rural communities in achieving sustainable growth and reduce poverty by improving their financial ability to cover basic needs.
You can read more about our work here: communitiesfordevelopment.org
I'm raising £2,000 for the CFD to cover one of the income generating projects the charity will be supporting with my help over there.
This money will NOT go toward my own stay or flights. Any donations big or small are welcome!
Whilst in Uganda I'll be keeping you updated on Facebook and through my blog One Big Rock: onebigrock.net
Stay tuned and wish me all the best on this journey!
