Farewell Uganda

Before departing for the U.S., the kids of Spirit of Uganda gave a free performance at La Bonita, a theater in Kampala. In attendance were their parents/guardians, friends, and everyone who has helped support Empower African Children. The turnout was amazing, and the performance was even better.  It gave the performers a valuable chance to run through an entire show in a theater and in front of an audience. Best of all, it gave the audience a great evening of entertainment. What an experience!

Here are some photos from the performance on January 14th at La Bonita Theater in Kampala, Uganda...coming soon to a theater much closer to your neighborhood.

Welcome to Empower African Children's Blog

Hi! Thanks for visiting the official blog of Empower African Children. This blog is intentionally being started to coincide with the Spirit of Uganda 2008 Tour. Our hope is that you can use it to follow the 22 Ugandan children performing in the tour as they travel coast to coast across the U.S. Along the way, we’ll also keep you posted with other updates and news from Empower African Children as it happens.

This blog is for you. We hope you’ll subscribe and check back regularly. We want to hear your comments, get your feedback on the tour — especially from those of you who attend one of the shows — and use this as a way to link you with the children and the work Empower African Children is doing in the U.S. and Uganda. We hope you’ll take this opportunity to interact.
