As we step into the promising dawn of 2024, we want to take a moment to reflect on the incredible journey we've had in December 2023. It was a month filled with action, achievements, and heartfelt gratitude.
On the 5th of December, we proudly hosted the GLOW Girl's Skills Center Graduation ceremony, a significant milestone for us. Seventeen bright young women from our pioneer class graduated with DIT Uganda certificates in Tailoring and Knitting. These certificates not only represent newfound skills but also open doors to income-generating opportunities for these talented individuals.
However, at GLOW Uganda, our mission goes beyond imparting technical skills. We believe in holistic empowerment, and our girls are not only trained in tailoring and knitting but also undergo a transformative journey through discipleship and mentoring in business and other essential life skills.
This graduation ceremony was not just a celebration of skills acquired; it was a testament to the positive impact that education can have on underprivileged girls. We extend our heartfelt appreciation to all our caring connections who have supported us in this noble cause. Your generosity has played a vital role in making education accessible to those who need it the most.
The joy of the occasion was amplified by the presence of an amazing team from Trinity Church of Sunnyvale and two dear friends, Dianne Gile and Judy McGregor Hill. Their support and encouragement made our celebration complete, and we are profoundly grateful for their involvement.
A special thank you goes out to Team Uganda, whose dedication and hard work are instrumental in making our dreams come true. Together with all our caring connections, you form a community that believes in the potential of every girl and works towards creating a brighter future for them.
In closing, we acknowledge that all glory, honor, and praise belong to God. It is with deep gratitude that we recognize the divine guidance that has led us to this point. As we embark on a new year, we carry with us the memories of December 2023 and the determination to continue making a positive impact on the lives of underprivileged girls through education and empowerment.
Here's to a year filled with even more achievements, growth, and opportunities for the incredible young women of GLOW Uganda.
With gratitude and hope.
