Hi there funders,

my name is Dee  I would like to volunteer in a foundation with people who have disabilities. I would like to improve disabled people's lives especially their toilet needs. I am passionate about this project because I suffer from polio and this really touches my life, how? I am lucky enough to live in the UK where disabled toilets are everywhere. In Uganda there is  not such, disabled people  just scout on toilets when they have limited movements in the limbs. This is very difficult, painful and embarrassing to disabled people.I choose Uganda as the destiation because, thats my descent, I understand the language and money exchange rates. This is meaningful for me as,I too suffer from a disability.
