Africa Dream Project (ADP) exists to eliminate poverty and empower lives.

We are a not-for-profit group founded and run by students. As students, we understand the immense value of education. We also see the extreme poverty in our world. And so, ADP members utilize passion and education to empower otherwise highly vulnerable individuals who live amidst extreme poverty. In doing so, we give them a chance to overcome desperate conditions and positively impact our world!

Donation of at least 2 t-shirts at time of purchasing a high school Homecoming "bid." The donation will henceforth be an annual event which commenced this year through an idea formulated between friends and the assistance of personnel and student council at my high school. We successfully received a total of over 1500 t-shirts which were donated to a local area charity called "Tent City." I also helped distribute these shirts to the homeless the following weekend after our homecoming.

Cause Week

ubkbunch — Thu, 13 Dec 2007 22:05:40 -0600

We started a cause week in our school to raise money for five different causes, Parkinson’s disease, Diabetes, AIDS, Alzheimer’s, and Cancer. To raise money for each cause we dedicated each day to a cause. Every day during third period we would go around to each classroom to inform the class of the cause we were helping that day and asked people to give donations. We set a color for each cause and on the day of that cause the students were encouraged to wear those colors.

Since October, a club at my school, Invisible Children United, of which I am an officer, has been working to raise money to aide the crisis in Uganda. My primary responsibility in the club has been to plan, organize, and implement our many fundraising events. For twenty years, a civil war has torn Northern Uganda apart, resulting in 1.5 million people displaced into camps, and a student to teacher ratio of 300 to 1, and the endless persecution of the Acholi people.
