“Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day, teach a man to fish and you feed him for life!”

The Uganda Program is an Iowa State University initiative in Uganda, focused on improving education, nutrition and income for youth and families through sustainable agriculture, vocational training and community-led development, empowering local Ugandans to build self-reliance and achieve better livelihoods. Now in its 22nd year, the program is “making a world of difference in a different part of the world.” Come see photos and hear more about this innovative program on the African savanna on Jan. 18 at 2 p.m. at First Presbyterian Church of Guthrie Center, 701 State St.
