After reading the article about Julius in Runner’s World, I felt compelled to visit his website and to support his cause. His beautiful story of success, compassion, and sacrifice is an example to all that we can make a difference.

I am so inspired by Julius’ story. What is so frustrating is that for the first time, I cannot properly articulate how I feel or how I want to react, except maybe to give Julius a hug some day and tell him that I aspire to do as much good for others as he has already done.

I was so inspired by the article in RW. I would like to do what I can to sport Anchon and his cause. It is my hope that other readers are also inspired by his story, and the word is spread about this selfless man. I, too, live in Portland and I hope that some day I have the opportunity to meet him.

Great story about Julius’ life and struggles to help himself while focusing so much on others. Post the story on facebook and twitter to help spread the word even further. We should all desire to be better!

I have posted this website on Facebook and Twitter. I’ve upload the Runners’ World story to both sites. Please encourage everyone to do likewise. Let the story & dream go virtual. Today I’ve put my first check in the mail to the Achon Uganda Children’s Fund. Together We Can!

I just read the article about Mr. Achon in Runner’s World and that inspired me to come search for his foundation’s website. He is an incredible person with a very big heart. I knew from my work experience that very little (in US standards) make a big difference in developing countries like Uganda, but I was astonished to find out that $100 can feed 11 children for a whole month, which only equates to many people’s monthly budget of latte´. I hope many people will read the article and will be inspired to give during the holiday season and thereafter.
