Give the Gift of Education (Gift Cards)

Educating Esther

Some of you by now have heard about Esther. She helped Toronto students learn about life in Uganda by volunteering to participate in an educational video used in Canadian classrooms. Both her parents have since died and she has had to leave school to help care for her brothers. She was the top student at Kinu School and dreams of being a nurse.


Although the UWGP does not offer scholarships two community businesses The Art of Beauty and Serenity Massage Therapy are coordinating a community fundraiser on Feb 19 2010 from 2:00- 4:30 for Esther.


Call Teresa or drop by the Art of Beauty 416 698-6968 (1672 Kingston Rd) to purchase a gift donation card and to RSVP to the event where you will learn more about Esther, The Uganda Water & Garden Project and Tin Roof Global the nonprofit organization that will be administering the Educating Esther funds. Music and refreshments will add to the atmosphere of community spirit.


If you have an item you can donate to the silent auction, please let Teresa know.

TAX RECEIPTS AVAILABLE!

Thank you for helping to make Esther’s dream of an education come true!
