I have been so fortunate to represent The Strømme Foundation(http://www.strommestiftelsen.no) and FK(http://www.fredskorpset.no/en/) as a volunteer at the Child Restoration Outreach(CRO) in Mbale, Uganda. This centre mainly provides education by paying the school fees for 400 students and rehabilitation classes for street children. Approximately 70 kids attend a rehabilitation class of one year, where I will be working, before being sent off to school.
I arrived in Uganda ten days ago and am starting to realize why it is said to be the pearl of Africa. With extremely beautiful and lush nature and a friendly people it certainly lives up to its name. I will continuously update this blog with pictures and my experiences in for you to follow.
