As stated in our previous post, our aim is to illuminate the lives of those who need our help, and we decided to help a woman named Margaret living in the suburbs in Kampala.She has Ovarian cancer and many theories have said that it occurs when some cancer-causing substances enter the body through the uterus and fallopian tubes which eventually reaches the ovaries.As a club we each brought 3 non perishable items that we would take to ther when we visited her. In addition we were able to give her 500,000 UGX for her medication. We wish her a quick recovery.

Tombola 

The tombola that was held before the end of term 2 was a huge success and we managed to raise about 420,000 UGX.  This is how the game worked: each participant had to pay 2000 UGX, then they had to pick a number and that number would correspond to one of the items displayed. 

Health day

The KISU Interactors had their second opportunity to work in collaboration with The Rotary Club of Kasangati on Saturday, the 7th of march 2015.

Some of the interact club members who participated at health day!

The Rotary Club of Kasangati was celebrating Health Day on this day and the Interactors had the chance to help out their Mother Club by assisting the sales and the medical care section. The Interactors seemed to be inspired by the skilled Rotarians and here are some photographs from the occasion:

On behalf of all the Interactors I, Cybille would like to thank the Rotary Club of Kasangati for hosting us and allowing us to participate in their activities. All of the interactorsnot only enjoyed the experience. Many volunteers seemed to be inspired and I can only hope that we can work collaboratively again in the future.

Valentines day Fundraiser

As part of our valentines day fundraiser, we sold roses at KISU and we successfully managed to raise 300,00 thousand Ugandan shillings. Each rose included a card on which the sender could write their own message.

The Interact Club would like to extend our gratitude to everybody who purchased roses and contributed. And to those who didn't, there will be many more fundraisers to come! Keep an eye out and thank you for taking your time reading this.
