Our annual fundraising conference is our most important event of the year.  This year, our guest speakers were Jackson Kaguri, founder of the Nyaka AIDS Orphans Project; and Roxanne Joyal, co-founder of Free the Children.  The evening was fascinating, hugely educational, and a resounding success!

Here are just a few photos from the event we’d like to share.  Hope to see you there next year!
