Fall 2006 Guluwalking Update

This year's day was a big success, raising over $500,000.00 worldwide and sending a message to governments, too, about the need for involvement. All 15 members of the United Nations Security Council passed a statement that urges the parties involved to bring an end to the 20-year conflict that gave rise to the Guluwalk, and they launched the Juba Initiative Fund to aid peace in Uganda.
