Very Cool People of the
Month:
Jane Dicker - from England
Paddy
Luzige - from Uganda
Joanna Breitstein - from the USA
So, what qualifies
these folks to be very cool people of the month?
Well, obviously
it's because they are superheroes. Move over Superman!
Jane, Paddy, and Joanna started
the IHUG foundation and are spearheading the campaign to sponsor
children and build a school in Kabalagala, Uganda.
| IHUG stands
for I Help Uganda Grow. |

Joanna and Jane
visited Paddy in Uganda and were moved by the hardship they saw
there. So many kids were without parents and had no school to
attend during the day. They realized how much of a difference
they could make by contributing their time and money; so they
started IHUG.
They've now raised
enough money to build a school, plus IHUG has sponsored 19 kids
and counting! Congratulations to Jane, Joanna, and Paddy. Thanks
for reminding us that it doesn't take super powers to get super
results.
If you're interested
in donating or getting involved with IHUG, you can e-mail hugfoundation@gmail.com,

Also, watch for
IHUG to appear on the new "Give it Away Now" page starting
in September.
