Members

Joanita Senoga, Advisor

Joanita is the advisor of the Givology spiders chapter, and is the inspiration behind the creation of the chapter at the University campus. Joanita founded the Circle of Peace School in Uganda in 1994 and soon after Joanita got in contact with Joyce Meng, president of Givology, the school became a Givology Partner the summer of 2009. Immediately after, Joanita contacted student Eunice Kim and a University chapter was created to specifically fundraise for the Ugandan school. To contact Joanita about the Circle of Peace school, you can contact her at jsenoga@richmond.edu

Eunice Kim, Founder & current web developer


Eunice is a 2010 graduate of U of R the founder of the chapter, Givology Spiders. In the summer of 2009, Joanita Senoga, the founder of the Circle of Peace School, contacted Eunice about the school’s desperate need of funding, where children with no tuition were being forced out of schools.  When the Circle of Peace school became a Givology Partner, Eunice and Joanita worked together to create a Givology chapter at the University. In September 2009, Givology Spiders was created. Eunice is currently the main web developer and market coordinator of the chapter. For more info, contact at eunicekim88@gmail.com
