In need of food. Help the hungry today !!!

Jan 28,14 9:30 pm

Probably the biggest problem the kids in Uganda face each day is hunger.
Some kids get only 1 meal a day and usually that meal is the school lunch they're served.
Kids have told me before that there was nothing at home to eat.
Sometimes they would only drink tea. Imagine what it would be like as a young child
to wait many hours during the day to get 1 simple meal of beans or cornmeal. This is why
Ugandan children are often underweight and have stunted growth due to their poor diet.

That's why we're planning to do more food related projects .
We plan to also take more food and deliver in some of the poorest villages in the Jinja area.

Will you help us? Below are photos of when we distributed rice, beans, sugar, potatoes and soap back in Oct. Make a donation on our blog with pay pal! Click the yellow DONATE BUTTON at the

------------The Video we've all been waiting for!!!

Sept 28, 6:36pm Raised $156 So far! Keep the donations coming! Hopefully we will meet our goal! Sept 28, 2:30pm UPDATE WE'RE UP TO $132 SO FAR! WOW. THE KIDS WILL BE SO HAPPY AND SURPRISED WITH THEIR GIFTS! THANKS EVERYONE! UPDATE!!! Sept 26 9:22am I've started a chip in page to raise funds for the kids. I want them to have a nice Christmas. We've raised $30 far. For some reason it does not show up on Chip in. Maybe because some people click donate instead of Chip in. So that's $30 of around $550 that I'd to raise. The kids need a few more mattresses and shoes etc. The also need more nutrious food. Sept 13, 1022pm These are some of the kids from the Home. Hope you enjoy the video. Feel free to comment if you like it. Thanks to ALL who have donated to the kids so far!

NEW SHOES!!! March 17,2010 2:13pm Here's the kids with their new school shoes! Thanks to all who gave so the kids could have shoes! They still need help paying their rent and to buy chickens to raise. So if you can donate again it would be wonderful!!! You can see in the photos that your money is ALWAYS used exactly as specified!!! URGENT UPDATE 3-13-10 9:50 am The Orphanage is needing help paying their rent. They have to move to a new house since the one they are in now has been bought by somone and they are being forced to move within a week. All the kids are crying and worrying about where they will go since they don't have $100 (monthly) to rent a new house. Some of the kids wouldn't eat because they were too sad yesterday. Won't you donate and help the kids move to their new house? If they don't have the money by next week they will just be on the street with no place to go. They Need Your Help Now More than EVER! They are praying for somone to Help! Donate...

...................URGENT 8 kids can't go to school if they have no fees!

This is Urgent!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The kids need fees by May 25th to go to school. 6 kids have fees already so that leaves 8 without fees. I soon hope to be selling Ugandan necklaces to benefit these kids also. Won't you consider buying an African craft or pay a child's school fees? It's only $15 a year! 8 kids will not attend school if they no fees and these kids all live together in the Orphanage, they are like brothers and sisters and if some kids attend school while the others can't it would sad. So consider making a donation for the kids even if it's only $1 or $5 they will be SO HAPPY! THANKS TO ALL WHO HAVE DONATED SO FAR!!!
