THURSDAY, JUNE 5 - VISIT T UAACC

Today a couple of the delegates from the Leon Sullivan Charitable Trust went to visit the United African Alliance Community Center to donate $10,000 to their cause.
The United African Alliance Community Center (UAACC) was founded under the name United African American Community Center in 1991 by Pete O’Neal, formerly Chairman of the Kansas City Chapter of the Black Panther Party and his wife, Charlotte Hill O’Neal, also formerly of the KC Chapter. This community center teaches more than 200 hundred students in the surrounding villages about arts & crafts, music, journalism, sports, busines and much more. A prime example of what positivity can bring the Africa and the children. From ages 2 t0 22, they performed dances for us, sung, did a fashion show of clothing they created and read poetry. It was a great time and I'm sure the $10,000 is much needed and they could use alot more. Check out more on the community center at: http://www.uaacc.habari.co.tz/
