Raising money for a project, whether through donors or investors is never an easy process.  We wanted you to know ahead of time, though exactly how your money is likely to be spent, as best as we can assess in a period of history where prices are fluctuating day by day.

The Chrysalis School - a specialist school for social entrepreneurs in Uganda, which can teach up to 80 students

The Chrysalis Centre – an open-house building, which provides activities for over 200 children in the slum district

The instigation of a new business, which provides specialist poverty alleviation equipment to the 25 remote villages
