Build Classrooms and Change Lives

This project is all about impacting the lives of children in Gulu, Uganda and encouraging them to dream. What we need from this is backing for $30,000 to build a school.

Here are the individual expenses it will take to build a classroom building:

Foundation: $8000

Hydraform Bricks: $9000

Veranda and Pillars: $3000

Roofing: $10,000

But, even when we raise this money, we still can’t do it on our own. That is one reason I have chosen to do this through Restore International. Restore’s goal is to bring hope, justice, and restoration, which is a mission that I believe all of us can rally behind and they are doing just that. My goal with teaming with Restore International and Bob Goff is to not only bring awareness to the needs of the children of Gulu, Uganda, but the need for us as individuals to begin putting leadership into action.

You see, no matter where you are at today, you can make a difference. Here are two short videos showing you the real difference we can make:

[Video] Rise – Restore Leadership Academy

Rise – Restore Leadership Academy from Restore International on Vimeo.

 

This video is from Restore International, the organization that we have the opportunity to help through giving during the month of February. I wanted to give you another glimpse into what they do and who they impact through showing you this inspirational short video. Restore is making a difference in Uganda and all over the world and we get to partner with them as a community. This gives each and every one of us another way to make an impact on a part of the world that we may never see and help build classrooms for Restore Leadership Academy. Doing this allows us to reach beyond ourselves and show love to future leaders. I wanted to let you know about this a month ahead of time, so you could not only find out more about Restore International and what they do, but also to let you think about how you can make an impact. We will need $30,000 to make this happen, but I know we can do this. It is a big goal, so I need your help as well as help from your friends in this, as I definitely can’t do it without you.

I don’t know about you, but it is difficult not to get excited about huge goals like this. 

Watch the above video. More details are coming soon as well as a giving page and ways that you can share this information with your social media networks. Let us put leadership into action next month, because helping others is what it is all about.
