Support Grace's Journey to a Better Life

Donation protected
We are asking for some help for Grace who lives in Uganda. The following is a short summary of her situation.
Background of Grace
Her parents died when she was young. She was raised in an orphanage. We sponsored her for approximately the last 10 years until she graduated college. She currently has a job working at a wildlife preserve.
Friendship with Morris
We became friends with Morris Kayanja, who was also from Uganda and became a priest, Morris became friends with Grace through our connection. Morris is the person who told us about Graces’s need to get a Masters.
In Uganda, there is an expectation of people with a job to help their extended family. To help her family, Grace needs to get a better job because a Bachelor’s barely meets her own needs. She needs an MBA to get a better paying job. She would need to go to school for 2 years (4 semesters.) The cost is approximately $5000 for the two-year MBA program. She has no funds, and Father Morris can only help some with incidental needs. Grace needs to enter in May, with funds in place at least for the first semester.
We are asking for you to pray and consider donating. Grace is a very thankful, giving, and sweet young lady. Out her own meager salary, she has already helped the orphanage that took care of her. Helping Grace will affect the lives of several impoverished people in her life.
Thank you!
