This week I got most of my vaccines ( or those needed according to the cdc) and as wimpy as it sounds.... OUCH! my arms are still sore! I have one left (yellow fever!) to get and am hoping that my arm is not sore to begin with this time. But I will take this chance to express how grateful I am that I live in a country that these vaccines are so easily available to me. This has only strengthened my desire to go to Uganda make a difference in the lives of those that don't have the benefits that I have had growing up in America!
To all of you readers in my home town ( I say that like there are a lot of you readers out there!)
My sister amazing and so willing to help me. I couldn't be more humbled by her willingness to help me raise money. She has set up a YARD SALE to help raise money for my summer with Help-International in Uganda. All money raised will go to my own fundraising efforts and be used to aid with our projects in clean water, education, small business, public health, and support groups.
If you are doing spring cleaning and have items that you
no longer need and want to donate to our yard sale, please contact myself or Kristen
and we will come pick them up! Any donations would be appreciated, and
again, all money raised goes to the trip and the work we will be doing in Uganda.
I also hear there will be a killer bake-sale with some cute kids trying to woo you into another cookie!
Again thank you all for your support. I am so grateful for the support I have received. So many of my friends have given what they could already and for that I am truly in awe of their giving hearts. I promise to help someone on your behalf!
For those of you outside my home town you can donate online at www.Help-International.org
or you can mail your check to
HELP International
