Embrace Uganda holds our annual 5K every year in downtown Wake Forest that helps us fund multiple projects on the ground when our mission team travels there every June. This year our mission team was busy preparing to leave on June 12 to help our partners and the orphans and children we serve in Uganda to have better access to clean water, medical care, and education. Every year our team works tirelessly to raise funds, collect supplies, and pray over this very important time with the children in Uganda who have very little in comparison to the world we know here in America. The medical clinics, feeding of school children, assistance in education, building, distributing, and loving on those children will not happen this year. We know so many people have been impacted by COVID 19 this year and that we are not alone in our disappointment in postponing our mission, but hope we can still make an impact with the help of our amazing supporters and donors. Embrace Uganda will mark the weekend that our team was due to leave, but holding a virtual 5K to help our partners be able to assist these children to get the medical attention they need and the education that all children deserve. Please join us in helping to make this happen. You can make a difference in the lives so many with your donation or participation in this event. Thank you for helping us make an impact!!!
