gulu.jpgGULU WALK - "GuluWalk is the effort by two average Canadians to raise awareness and support for the 'night commuters' of rural northern Uganda: children who walk every night towards the safety of larger cities to avoid abduction by the rebel army. For 31 days in July 2005, Adrian Bradbury and Kieran Hayward walked from the Toronto east end to the downtown to sleep outside. After an uncorfortable five hours sleep they returned home every morning at sunrise to retrace the 12.5 km walk. Adrian and Kieran committed themselves to this journey for the entire month and continued to work and attempted to maintain their normal lifestyle while adding the physical toll of the GuluWalk."
