We have very exciting plans for this summer and want you to
get involved! This summer we will be working on the ground in Uganda in
collaboration with 1000 Gardens to build a garden at Buppala and we would like
to invite YOU to be part of this experience! We are looking for as many hands
as possible to be on the ground working alongside Ugandans to create this
garden. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to create lasting change in an
impoverished village in Uganda.
The 1000 Gardens in Africa is a project of Slow Foods
International and works to create food security in African countries. They have
built tons of gardens all over Africa and we will be working with their field
technician to build our very own garden at Buppala! Watch this video to learn more about the 1000 Gardens project or visit their website at: http://www.slowfoodfoundation.com/athousandgardens
This garden will encourage students to go to and stay in
school and will also greatly improve their school performance. In addition, it
will help the village become self-sufficient as they will be able to sell their
produce. All these factors will greatly improve their quality of life.
The trip will be led by Joanne Trangle of Kuchanga Travel.
Kuchanga Travel is a foundation that organizes volunteer opportunities and
adventure throughout several African countries. You can visit their website

Join us on this incredible journey to meet our friends at
Buppala and help them build a better future! Come see how people really live in
Africa and how we can make a difference and improve their quality of life.
