Every week we say we have an incredible Feature Friday to share - and every week we mean it!
Today you can read all about Alison Fast - she was first introduced to Sister Schools at our 2016 Gala Auction. In 2017, she was volunteering at our event and helping sort supplies in our warehouse and the next spring she decided she needed to see the other side and traveled with us to Uganda.
Alison stole the hearts of so many Ugandan children and teachers during the trip and earned the nickname "Ja-jja", an affectionate and loving term for grandmother.
You can read all about Alison's journey from beginning to end on our blog, www.sisterschools.org/interview-alison-fast ... See MoreSee Less
For this week's Feature Friday, we interviewed Carol Lycette, who has been to Uganda so many times, she's lost count! She's forged relationships with teachers and administrators at every partner school and is always ready to play with the kids.
You can't meet Carol Lycette and not love her.
