CROSO is a 501(c)3 organization that is based in the Chicago area and provides college scholarships to former street children in Uganda. Each year, we host an annual benefit to raise funds for our scholars and raise awareness about the importance of supporting them to access this education. We also celebrate the success that our scholars and graduates have achieved as a result of accessing higher education and the opportunities for our donors to get more involved. This year, this will be a sit-down luncheon event with a raffle, very limited silent auction and a paddle raise. Funds raised will be used to support our scholarship students and the operation costs of our organization. All donors will be acknowledged in the program, through social media posts, and on our website.
