Northern Uganda Children are remembered!!


Get involved support Northern Uganda Children!


Don't Miss Knoxville Jazz for Justice Concert!! Follow the link below and mark your calender and while you're at it do order a T-Shirt for yourself or your friends!!

Thanks to “Knoxville Jazz for Justice,” a music activism project initiated in 2006 to raise funds, awareness, and support by UT professor, Dr. Rosalind Hackett and concerned students, together with musicians in the local, national and international jazz community, some of those young people are overcoming their trauma and rebuilding their lives. All of the proceeds from KJfJ concerts benefit the Northern Ugandan Girls’ Education Network (NUGEN). And this East Tennessee connection is being felt in Northern Uganda, where some of the girls in the program call themselves “University of Tennessee girls.”

For more information, contact Dr. Rosalind Hackett, Coordinator, rhackett@utk.edu; Lindsay McClain, Public Relations Campus Coordinator, lmcclai4@utk.edu; or visit the Knoxville Jazz for Justice website at: www.knoxjazzforjustice.org. Other team member includes:
