Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page!

This year I decided to skip the typical holiday and not going to the beach or visiting a new city. I'll spend several weeks in Uganda in September assisting Soft Power Education.
I'll be mainly teaching english, computer, internet to children and doing some refurbishing/construction work where needed.
My experience as travel photographer will be quite helpful as well in documenting the daily life there.

It's going to be the first experience of this kind for me. 

It took me long time to choose the "right" association and I contacted several dozens before I decided to go with Soft Power Education.

Soft Power Education (SPE) is a British registered charity and Ugandan NGO working with communities in Uganda to improve quality of life through education. 

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.
Please let me know if you'd like to donate cash or via bank transfer.

All donations will go to the charity and of course are NOT going to cover any of my personal costs like flights, accommodation, vaccinations and visa.

So please dig deep and donate now! ;)
Any help is going to be much appreciated and it is going to have a HUGE impact. 

Grazie! Gracias! Thank you! Asante! Merci!

Tom
