My personal message:
Thank you for visiting my fundraising page for United Planet!

On August 2, 2008 I will join United Planet in Uganda for 6 months to raise HIV/AIDS awareness in the local communities.  I will also work with AIDS orphans in the community and learn about the local culture and customs.

Beyond making a difference in a community in need, I will broaden my global perspectives and cross-cultural understanding; work in international teams; develop leadership skills; and build lifelong friendships.

Traveling to Africa and making a difference in a local community is something I have wanted to do for a long time. Now I have found this great opportunity to make my dreams come true, but I need your support and donations to make it all possible. All the money I will be raising for this project goes directly toward United Planet's expenses (For more information about where the money goes, feel free to visit http://www.unitedplanet.org/quest/whypay.html).

Donating through this website is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to support my fundraising efforts. Your donations are also 100% tax deductible!

Many thanks for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!

Cheers,
Jenny
