Goal
This year, Carol will be turning 80 years young in the month of July!
She has it on her heart this year to use this milestone for fundraising for a select group of YES Uganda students.
As many of you know, we do our best to support students as far as possible in their education. Unfortunately, funding doesn't always permit us to take students further than secondary school. On several occasions, we have had students complete their final year (Senior 6) with outstanding marks but we were unable to support them further.
This fundraiser will be aimed primarily at these students. Any money donated will be used to further the education of YES students at the university level, in vocational training, or any other form of education that would benefit the students.
Carol has dedicated 28 years to serving and running YES Uganda. We want to honor her hard work and her wishes by fundraising for these students who are so dear to her heart.
If you choose to donate, we encourage you to wish Carol a happy birthday via the comments section. We are also setting a challenge to see who can recall the best story about Carol.
We thank you for your dedication and commitment to YES Uganda in the form of time served, friendship, prayers, and financial sacrifice. Without you, everything Carol has built wouldn't have been possible. So from all of us here at YES Uganda, we want to say a massive thank you.
