OUR END GOAL: CREATING A COMMUNITY CENTER

Dealing with poverty gets difficult by the day in Uganda. Trying to aid the escape of poverty, mothers tend to sell off their daughters for a better living. There is no safety in selling off children, with a hope for a guaranteed future. Girls are being sold left and right like commodities and merchandise, around the ages of 7 to 17. This existing condition has created a goal for myself in providing a safer escape for young girls, giving them a provided future. The idea of this shelter will include: housing, education, and basic skills for work. 

 As VOCFINU develops as an organization, I plan on creating a community center in Gulu, Uganda. Not only will we provide for the young girls, but will have opportunities for their mothers to maintain skills and work. The skills they will be working around will be vocational training, cookery, bakery, tailoring and computer literacy. There will also be provided doctors clinic for the community. 

     The project aims at promoting entrepreneurial and skills to enable youth employment. The program with target individuals both in and out of school. The focus of the project goes out to underprivileged youth surviving on little to none resources and constantly seeking out a purpose for their lives. I plan on working with youth who lack nurture, and being reared in a way which develops them into a productive individual leading to a productive generation. 

Without the help of donations and sponsors, this project will not be capable of succeeding the goal. Donations of any kind will be taken, plus the future planning of fundraisers to support our mission. We’d very much appreciate the support.
