CRESS Uganda awarded a grant

20 Christian NGOs qualified and got the grant, Cress, Uganda was the 3rd among the 20 because of our well written strategic plans and projects. The strategic plans underwent eight meetings before judgement. The 20 NGO’s were hugely congratulated for the services they deliver to the beneficiaries.

A representative was called up to receive the award; but Scopas and Isaac Kwaje were attending online so the money will be sent to the office in Arua.
