Oswaldo ready for anything

In advance of the Ugandan National Youth Trials for Taekwondo, I thought it would be good to supplement some of our taekwondo photos. The event is this Saturday 22nd October 2011. Thanks to Elaine for sponsoring the group to attend and we hope that many will be selected to take part in the National championships shortly afterwards.

They are members of the Chrysalis Centre, a base for the Butterfly Project, which has been developing young social entrepreneurs in slum and rural districts in Uganda since 2009. We believe in empowering young people to decide their own futures, by bringing hope and developing creativity and problem-solving amongst those most capable. We are based in the Acholi Quarter, Kireka, one of the most deprived areas of Kampala, Uganda. For more information or if you wish to send a donation to the Centre or an individual child (such as a sponsorship), then our web-site is at www.socialenterpriseafrica.org. We also have a blog at chrysalisuganda.wordpress.com/ and Twitter is #socentafrica
