Thanks to you, our generous supporters, Hands for Hope was able to raise almost $15,000 USD this holiday season (not counting the $4000 we were awarded in matching funds from the Giving Tuesday campaign)!
While we were mainly targeting the project that focuses on our most vulnerable girls, while school has been out, we've been extremely busy planning for 2020. We are re-furbishing our library and classrooms, officially opening our new tailoring class, starting a computer lab to improve tech literacy for our staff as well as our children, and we are overhauling the school's overall schedule to include more extracurricular activities: music, art, sports and more! Stay tuned for all the exciting updates over the next couple months.
None of this would be possible without you! Your support makes all the difference not only to the children of Namuwongo, but also to the organization's staff who work extremely hard every day to ensure that our students thrive.
To celebrate, back in December we held our annual Holiday party with over 170 parents in the audience and every class performing! We had dance, music, theatre, circus and comedy and are extremely proud of all of our talented pupils!
Thanks again to everyone who gave during this holiday season. Here's to a great 2020!
