Hello All! So I made it back from Uganda safe and sound and am readjusting and living up in Portland, Oregon.
During the trip I had three photography projects, one with 8 boys from the local school, the second with the Nu Intentions women, and the third my own documentation of the village and the lifestyles and people in it. I will be starting a flickr account and posting all of the photos. Right now, only the photos I've taken will be posted. I'm working on getting some funding for the development of the cameras and once I do, I'll be posting the others as well.
All the photos are for sale for $25 each or $35 matted. The money raised will go directly back to the people in Kapelebyong. The money raised from the boy's photos will go to the secondary school to help create a fence so the students can start cultivating on the grounds and get their school fees paid for (yes, this is a round-about way to support them, but it will be fully sustainable). The money raised from the Nu Intentions girl's photos will go directly back to them as well to hopefully add one to two more women to the organization. The money raised from my photos will be divided up evenly between the other two projects.
Once the photos are all developed I'm going to try and have them displayed at a gallery/shop in Eugene and/or in Portland and will send invitations for the openings.
If you would like any of the photos please email me at ajovone@gmail.com . I will have every photo numbered to avoid any confusion, I will also post information on each photo. The photo above is of Daukus sifting through rice for lunch in front of our place in Kapelebyong.
