18 Kids and Counting, War Dance, Uganda fun



UPDATE!! Bunk beds are needed for the School Dorms. Two or three kids have to share 1 twin bed. About 10 triple bunk beds are needed. 2 have been provided so far.
Each triple bunk bed it $83! Some beds are broken so the kids really need more beds to sleep comfortably. Awhile ago they sleep on a wooden bed with no mattress at all!!
Thanks!

You can also buy the kids gifts such as clothes, shoes, blankets, school supplies etc.

Be a sponsor to a very needy child for $35 per school term.
These kids have 2 terms of school left this year but they still have no sponsor.
They may have to leave school soon if no one helps them. $35 provides the kids with
3 months of school lunches.


Will you help one of thse kids today?

In Uganda
I saw kids who had holes in their socks, shoes, school uniforms and everyday clothes.
I saw kids who were couldn't even afford $5 for a school uniform.
Their school New Victory allows them to attend without a uniform but most Ugandan school don't. New Victory knows they don't have anything else to wear.
Some kids wore the same clothes everyday. Some were very skinny, dirty, or sick.
But most of all I saw kids who just wanted someone to care about them.
They want to be your friend. Most are orphans who live with a single mom, Aunt or Grandparent so they don't get much attention at home.
The school really needs more beds. 2 or 3 kids have to share each twin bed.
A mattress is $35 and a bunk bed is about the same price.

We were able to take lots of kids shopping, swimming, or to do other fun things they may have never done. We packed 18 kids in a 8 passenger van.
They all had tons of fun. Won't you donate to help get beds or other supplies for the kids? They will so happy! Any amount helps. Click on the Yellow DONATE button at the top of the blog! Thanks!

Comments

  1. I just watched all 10 parts to this movie. What is there to comment? I don't have the words to say, but only a prayer to lift up to Jesus Christ our Lord and savior. Please Lord hear me now, protect these people of Northern Uganda. I ask for your peace, your love, your grace and your mercy to be upon them. Help the hurt and broken hearted, heal their souls with the peace that comes from knowing and living in your grace and mercy. I also pray for the rebels Lord, please soften their hearts. I pray that your Word is being sent to these people and that they know you. I pray this in Jesus's wonderful name, Amen

How family life is in Uganda and Join our FB!

April 3, 2019  2:27 pm To sponsor a child visit us at www.auntiesangels.com or https://www.facebook.com/groups/229498890486607 I wanted to share a bit about family dynamics in Uganda as well as some other things not known about their lifestyles. The only way to see or know these things is to visit and spend a good amount of time there. I'm still learning even after all these years. Many of our kids live without fathers but may have more than 1 person that they call "mom or dad" . In cultural traditions A child has a mom and any of her sisters are called "mom". The mom's brothers are usually called "Dad" as well. For their "Dad" any of his sisters are called Ssenga = Aunt. and any of his brothers are called "Jomba =Uncle. Now this mainly applies to deep villages since in Kampala and Jinja the 2 largest cities are filled with people who are educated and they know the difference between Aunt, Uncle , Cousin etc. Some people

Uganda Healthcare and Ever increasing needs.

8-12-18 9:24 am After spending several months in UG its time to post about things I saw while there. Regarding healthcare and extreme needs in rural Kamuli. One of the most poor and illiterate places in UG. There is an increase in the Hep B disease but not enough vaccines to go around. Someone on the news said a health care worker told them if your already going to die, just die. I have no idea why compassion , care & sympathy is so sorely lacking in Uganda especially among the health care workers. It's very tragic when families can't even afford as little as $5 to treat malaria , typhoid or anything else. Missionaries say they've witnessed nurses and docs laughing at and ridiculing patients who can't pay . Some even have little babies who die because no nurse will touch them until money is paid. We recently had a young girl wait 11 days for a simple hernia surgery. No explanation as to why other than they were "busy" and no one ever has the chance t

Home is low on food

Without medicine they will not recover. Donate by Chip In or click the Yellow "DONATE" button. Photos of the sick children with Malaria are at the bottom of the blog, their names are Oliver, Emmanuel, and Betty. Pray for them and consider helping them! This photo is of the new beds for all the kids! Thanks to everyone who gave donations on this site! The kids got beds for Christmas! November 13, 1:40pm The Children are low on food now. Each month they usually run out of food. If you would like to like to make a donation for food for the kids click on the Chip IN button. Always beds were bought for all 19 children with some of the money we have raised from their Chip IN button and other donations. The "Annamani Orphanage" and " Christmas" Fundraisers are still going on. C
