Help Care For These Little Ones In Uganda
Donation protected
Hello Brothers and Sisters,
Today I am asking for your help in feeding, educating, and supplying the needs of a small orphanage my husband and I have been supporting this year. Courtland's Children's Home is located in Jinja, Uganda and currently houses and cares for 32 children. There are also other orphans in the area who they want to bring into the home but lack beds. These are a young boy living nearby who comes daily for food and 5 brothers and sisters ages 10-2 who lost their parents to the AIDS virus. Our hope would be that through this Go Fund Me they could be brought in. Because of the shutdowns they are struggling more than ever to have the things they need. Our friend and brother, Joseph, who manages the home reports that costs of things have skyrocketed and jobs are now becoming more scarce. So I ask you to please give what you can. Thank you, and may God bless you.
Some of the immediate needs for these dear ones are:
1)Building a new latrine
^The one they had is no long usable. They have started the beginning stages of digging a new one but lack the funds to complete it. It is urgent that they finish it as without one illness can spread.
2)The children's education
^The schools will be reopening soon, but the children will have to pay fees to attend, an average of $45 per school age child.
3)Shoes
4)Water bills
5)Food
6)Soap
7)Tooth paste and toothbrushes
8)Their milk cow's medical bill
9)Mosquito nets
^for the prevention of malaria
10)Clothes
11)Buckets and basins
12)Jerricans
13)Owed medical bills from malaria treatment
14)Farming project
^They hope to plant some more crops such to feed the children and to sell
15)Beds
16)Mattresses
17)Blankets
18)Bed sheets
In the photo below are the family of 5 who will be able to move to the children's home after beds and such become available.
