Sharon Crary founded Social Promise. Currently an Associate Professor of Biochemistry at DePauw University in Indiana, Sharon’s commitment to Social Promise and the people it serves runs deep.  Since her first trip to Gulu, Uganda in 2000 (in the service of the Center for Disease Control), she has worked to support local partners.  In her many trips to Uganda, she found herself motivated by the extreme needs of the people and inspired by the actions and devotion of the people there. Her compassion, in turn, inspires many others.
