Watoto is an Holistic care programme that was initiated as a response to the overwhelming number of orphaned children and vulnerable women in Uganda, whose lives have been ravaged by war and disease.
In July 2011, after attending a concert put on by the Watoto Children’s choir, a group of British Asian professionals were greatly touched by the stories of the children and the work of the orphanage. Whilst speaking with their UK representatives, they mentioned they required a new nursery within the Orphanage to help with the daily running of the Orphanage. the Watoto June 2012 team was then formed with a view to going to the Watoto Orphanage where they can build this nursery and contribute in their own little way to the work of Watoto.
The team, which consists of 6 individuals, will pay for their own flights and accommodation, are simply raising funds for the actual cost of the building project. After a successful fundraising football tournament where 19 teams took part, the main fundraising event will be held on the Saturday 10th March 2012 at one of London’s grandest venues:
The Ball at Moor Park, the grand finale to a season of fundraising for the Watoto June 2012 Project. The venue, Moor Park Mansion, with its grand paintings, ornate ceilings and landscaped gardens, is a fitting place to hold this high class charity Ball that will be an evening to remember.
Venue: Moor Park Golf Club, Rickmansworth, Hertfordshire, WD3 1QN
Dress up in style and come down to a venue that will blow your mind. It’s a great opportunity for you to have a memorable evening with friends and help raise funds for the Watoto project!
