• Uganda, Africa, 07/2019, Lead role in organizing fund-raising for myself and other volunteers in my group. The largest fund raising project was putting on a silent auction. While in Uganda, several volunteers including myself lead a seminar with teachers and principals in the area who wanted to learn more about including special needs children in their schools. Our seminar focused on explaining special needs as a whole; what it can look like, both physical and mental variations, what to do in case of an emergency such as a seizure and how to teach/include special needs children in the classroom.
