Chelsea Gillum, a 23-year-old Mount Royal University student, worked from December 2009 to January 2010 in Uganda as a social worker, and says her experiences there influenced her outlook on life and choice of studies.

After she graduates from Mount Royal’s social work program in 2014, she is planning on going back to Uganda to work there.
