Save The Date: Journey of Light III
Join us on Thursday, November 9th at 5pm PST / 8pm EST for our 3rd annual virtual benefit: Journey of Light III.
Right now, we have over $50,000 in donations and pledges from our amazing supporters. Will you help us reach our goal of $100,000? A donation of any size will make an impact:
Attendees will be transported to Uganda – from the comfort of home – to discover how investing in female entrepreneurs, empowering families and sponsoring students through Children of Uganda has transformed lives.
This year, viewers will have the opportunity to meet several sponsors who made visits to Uganda this summer including:
Rob Hoxton and Mary Logan Hoxton
Rob and Mary Logan are longtime supporters and devoted sponsors of Resty, Florence and Ivan. They were so excited to meet their students for the first time and to be reunited with Jane Nanfuka whom they met during the 2014 Tour of Light (they equally enjoyed sampling her delicious cake!). So moved by their experience on the ground, they decided to sponsor four additional students: Pamela, Joan, Promise Caleb and John Austin.
Tammy Dube
In 2019, Tammy visited Uganda and had the opportunity to meet the young boy she co-sponsors named Pinto. This year, she had the great joy of meeting her other co-sponsored student, Maria. Tammy brought a coloring book, markers and a bracelet making kit that Maria and her classmates loved playing with. Everyone was all smiles!
Jeanne Walsh
Little Jane Racheal was simply overcome with emotion as she met her sponsor for the first time – with many, many happy tears being shed! The experience was so touching for everyone there and Jeanne was especially grateful for the time spent together. Jeanne then visited her other sponsored girl, Teo, as well as her family. Teo’s sister, Irene, runs a clothing store that was supported by Children of Uganda.
