Fields of Dreams Uganda provides hope, empowerment and a future to the vulnerable children of Uganda through the vehicles of
soccer and education. The organization believes that the power of sports in a child's life can make a lasting impact, and often a
quality education is the only thing that can lift a child out of poverty.
Centenary has had several members go to Uganda to serve at the schools and communities. This year we were a proud sponsor
of the 2023 Fields of Dreams Uganda 5k for Hope. This took place Oct 7th at the Vanderburgh county 4-H Center and virtually
around the world. This race raised funds for the ongoing work across Uganda that serves over 5,000 students and teachers at
the nine partner schools. Funds will be aimed for our ongoing development of the Hope Empowerment Center that will provide
sustainable programming for generations to come in the areas of technology, sports, youth development and education. Funds will
also be distributed for school fees, hygiene kits, soccer training, and leadership development activities. Collectively over $35,000
was through this event.
