“God has given me breath and a platform and I want to use it to the best of my abilities to help others.” said Yvonne.
“I urge you all to come out and let’s enjoy a great evening celebrating African music while supporting a good cause,” she added.
Shule Foundation celebrates Watoto Mtani Project one year anniversary where it looks forward to raising funds from the event to construct a unique educational facility for street kids.
“With 48% of the children on the streets under the age of 15, we should take it upon ourselves to ensure that these children are granted at least one basic right, which is education,” says Jacqueline Wolfson, the CEO Shule Foundation.
There will be celebration of Nelson Mandela 100th year today Wednesday 18 at Mandela National stadium in Namboole.
