Kimeeza Mentor program a success

Yesterday Kimeeza participants partnered with local organizations to go into the community and observe the many types of non-profit work in Gulu. These organizations ranged from Invisible Children, which runs income-generating projects and assists local schools, to The AIDS Support Organization (TASO), which provides counseling and other services to those affected by HIV.

Participants enjoyed this opportunity to see organizations at work, and the variety of knowledge and experience they gained will add a new dimension to the Action Plan they are currently drafting.

GYPA thanks the organizations that supported this event:

• Gulu Development Agency
• Invisible Children
• Gulu University Peace and Conflict Center
• Acholi Education Initiative
• Little Sisters of Mary Center for Disadvantaged Children
• TASO - Gulu
• Helping Hands (supported by Quakers)
