To Uganda With Compassion ...

On Feb. 10, fifteen bloggers from around the nation will join me in Chicago for a historic trip to Uganda. We will converge the power of our blogs to educate and inform our circles of influence about the needs of the children in this beleaguered country.

We will each tell the story in our own unique way and provide a collage free from the bias and hype of mainstream media. A story that unfolds REALTIME as we we experience the emotion, sights and smells with YOU as our travel partners.

Please tell your friends and ask them to gather 'round to read Ethos daily for eight days as I attempt to chronicle our trip in a compelling way.

Thanks to the Compassion International organization for having the foresight to organize this "first of its kind" trip.

Read more here during the next few days. Follow my preparation, thoughts, fears and excitement as the time quickly approaches. 27 days to go.
