UFF's Black Tie & Barefoot Ball 2011 - another huge success!



On behalf of UFF, we would like to thank you for your incredible support of our Black Tie & Barefoot Ball on Saturday night.

The event was a huge success with over 650 enthusiastic guests attending, and we raised just over $100,000!

We are SO excited to be able to begin construction of 2 more classrooms, 2 health rooms and a storage area in August this year. The evening would never have been so successful without the support of our key sponsors: Ridgeview Wines, Coopers, Canadian Club, Coca Cola, Red Bull and all the generous businesses who donated towards our raffle, live and silent auctions.

We would also like to say a massive thank you to all our hard working volunteers for donating your time and energy to the smooth running of the event.

Please check out our awesome new video online at : http://vimeo.com/25561308 and like United Future Foundation on Facebook to stay up to date with the latest news from Katuuso Primary and Vocational School.

Thank you again from the UFF team and Katuuso community for your extraordinary generosity. Our work in Uganda would never be possible without you!

Please don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions, would like feedback about the project or would like to donate before the end of financial year!
