TULSA, OK -- A team of Oklahoma professionals will be heading to Uganda next month with the mission of helping the children of Africa. 

The Pros For Africa team is made up of doctors, lawyers and engineers, but there will also be a group of NFL players with an Oklahoma tie.

Former OU Sooner and current Cincinnati Bengal safety Roy Williams is one of the athletes going along. 

Williams talked with Six in the Morning Friday about the trip.

The children of Uganda were featured in a special documentary called "Invisible Children." 

There is a big fundraiser Friday night at the governor's mansion in Oklahoma City. 

Six in the Morning anchor LeAnne Taylor is also on the team going to Uganda. 

Once LeAnne returns, The News On 6 will air a special on the trip and the mission on April 21 at 7 p.m.
