Farnborough Rotary Club member Katy Harris has been chosen as 2019 International Champion of Change for her 6 years of outstanding work on a school project in Lugala, Uganda. The project gives children living in extreme poverty in slum areas the opportunity to break out and fulfil their potential.
Katy’s involvement included the teaching, teacher training and the school building and facilities. Her enthusiasm, skills and her practical experience as a teacher and head teacher guided the project towards successful and highly praised developments in the school’s curriculum, educational achievements and better lives for its students.
The award has been made by RIBI – Rotary International in Britain and Ireland. Katy will be honoured at the Rotary Champions Award Ceremony at the Nottingham Council House on 10 May. The Lord Mayor and Sheriff of Nottingham will host the awards and make the presentations alongside Rotary International President Barry Rassin.
