Welcome to the African Dream Blog!
Inspired by the Combonian missionary father Enrico Colleoni, who has been working in Uganda for the past 40 years, African Dream was founded in 2006 by Vincenzo Baggio and Antonella Benigna.
The goal of our association is to help the less fortunate of Uganda and to assist those people who don't have the means to improve their own lives.
With its commitment, African Dream will raise funds directed entirely to help Uganda.
Our projects will finance activities for the improvement of the educational system, of health care and of the quality of life, especially in the most rural parts of the country.
Our objectives aim at creating better solutions for reducing poverty, famine, illnesses, illiteracy and sexual discrimination.
The first project is the a College for 300 students. We hope to finish the project by the end of 2009.
A Special AfricanDreamer Family!
| We wish to express our thank you to Tom and Kristine Kraabel who together with their little daughter Erika will return to the USA by the end of the month.
Tom and Kristine have been active supporters of African Dream since a long time. Due to their upcoming move, this past weekend they organized a ‘garage sale’ and decided to devote the entire intake to African Dream.
Even little Erika, six years old, gave her contribution to our cause. Together with her friend Julia, she organized a candy sales at their home and raised 40 euro from it. It was sweet to see them at work, as they were busy working for our children in Nebbi.The total came up to about 1600 euro and these funds will be used to progress our third dormitory construction, which just began a few weeks ago. Thank you so much from the deep of our heart.
Your generosity is greatly appreciated by our African Dream team as well as by our students in the school of Omyer. We also take this opportunity to wish you a safe return to your home country and all the very best for your future. Vincenzo and Antonella |
