On July 8th by the generosity of the members of First Rate People there will be a fundraising performance for the MAVAP program that the Market supports.  This is a program about AIDS awareness and other health issues specifically for those who work and visit the Markets of Uganda.  It is by donation at the door and space will be limited.
