Uganda, Here I Come!


On May 8th, I will be embarking on my first humanitarian trip abroad to Mbale, Uganda! I will be serving on behalf of HELP International which is a non-profit organization based here in Provo, Utah. We will get the chance to assess the needs of the community when we arrive and initiate projects and programs that can be sustainable and life changing for the local Ugandan people. I am SO eager to go and serve my fellow men and I know that they will teach me far more in return. I will detail all my experiences, pictures, projects, etc. here on this blog as I will not have phone access but periodic access to the internet will help me communicate our progress and successes there!

I would like to thank the following for helping sponsor my trip to Uganda and providing means to alleviate world poverty:

Blake and LouAnn Alexander
Jo and Don Alexander
Mark and Bonnie Cutler
Courtney and Nathan Grover
Allen and Jeanine Blatter
Gaylen and Jill Grover
Ted and MaryAnn Mitchell
Wayne and Cathy Allred
Sharon Jonas

and of course, my wonderful mom and dad-- Marsha and Blair
Thank you SO much for helping make this trip a possibility so that I may serve our Heavenly Father's children in Uganda!

More updates to come!!
