Starting on the 27th March 2008 we want to lock up around 30 people. The goal is for them to raise £1,000 in bail before they get out. They have to spend a minimum of 4 hours in prison with only a phone.
Why? In Africa today 13 children will die every minute from things that we can prevent. The aim of the lock up is to help raise funds for some of our projects and especially the school we want to build in Gulu (North of Uganda) and the working with women and children who have been abducted or seriously affected by war.
