Cindy Garrison, a young philanthropist, is making her mark on Uganda by building a secondary school in Namayumba, Uganda, an impoverished village. Garrison first visited a neighboring town for a mission trip and realized that something was missing. There was no secondary school (equivalent to a U.S. high school) for children to attend after completing primary school. So, she became committed to fulfilling this need for the Ugandan children. She raised money by advocating for the cause. She connected with many people, including the Christian Drama School. The Christian Drama School helped her raise money by creating a DVD. The DVD was produced and sold, with proceeds from each going towards this new secondary school in Namayumba. To date, the school now has a completed foundation, and construction continues. How exciting that a seemingly insignificant individual can make such a difference! What difference could you make?

Dear Pastor Senyonga,
You can watch the movie trailer of the DVD that is being sold to raise funds needed to build the school in Namayumba. We hope to build even more schools in Uganda. See "According to Africa" by going to ChristianDramaSchool.org or go to YouTube and search "According to Africa" by the Christian Drama School of New Jersey. We are the children, youth, and families who support our missionary,Cindy Garrison, as we work together to rescue the orphans of Uganda.

Cindy is an amazing woman who has shown all of us what a difference one person can make when filled with the spirit of Christ.
The DVD is currently in production, but can be pre-ordered. In addition to bringing awareness of the plight of Ugandan children to those who view it, all profits from the sale of these DVDs will go towards the Nansana schools. If you would like to view a portion of this DVD, go to youtube.com and search for According to Africa.
Thank you for honoring Cindy with your mention of her in your blog!
