As mentioned a few weeks ago, my sister was in Uganda on a business trip for BabyLegs. While there, she met a young woman called Alice who, after enduring several tragedies in her life including the loss of her parents to AIDS and a motorcycle accident that nearly cost her a leg, was trying to find the money to continue her education at Nkumba University. Spring has decided to help this brilliant student complete her education in Development Studies so that she may help others in her country emerge from poverty and go on to live happy, successful lives. To that end, I’m helping her raise $2300 for Alice to finish her studies. Please use this link to donate as much as you can, however large or small. 100% of this money will be sent to Nkumba University to cover Alice’s tuition, books, room and board.

My sister Spring, ever the global trotter, is wrapping up her trip in Uganda. She’s been there for the last three weeks with her company, BabyLegs, visiting, educating, aiding and otherwise inspiring the locals and in turn being inspired, aided, educated and visited by her gracious hosts. She’s posted a wealth of stories and photos and in only a brief moment, captured a lifetime of memories. Read her blog here.
