This year a small team will again return to Uganda to hold camps, do village visits and work on the Adored International home, gardens and farms. If you would like to donate to our trip, these are some of the things we will be looking for to bring along with us, as well as project estimated costs that we will try to raise. Volunteers attending the trip pay for their own flights, lodging, meals and transportation. We work as a team to fundraise for the activities we will encounter during the 10-14 day stay. We welcome you to join us:
