Help a Ugandan Child Go To School

Donation protected
My name is Laura Hughes, and I live in Montgomery, Alabama.  I have a good friend living in Kampala, Uganda, named Onyait Grace.  She has made it her life's mission to help the poor and hungry children of a village outside her city receive nourishing meals for their families, worship with them, and help find sponsors to send children to a local village school!  

I send money to her via MoneyGram, which is the fastest and most trustworthy way of transferring funds from the U.S. to Uganda at this time.  PayPal and other funding sources do not work, as Uganda is not on the "list" of countries, or the fact that Grace's ministry is not an "official" 501(c) non-profit charity, registered inside of the United States.

ALL MONEY received by Grace goes directly to feeding the children and their caregivers (usually a widowed grandparent, as MOST of the village children have lost their own parents to war, malaria, malnutrition, other diseases, or AIDS.)

To send a child to school, purchase a uniform, shoes, and supplies for a year for that child, costs approximately $200/year.  Since hundreds of the village children do not go to school, they are eager to meet the few children who are sponsored and blessed to attend school each evening when they return --- to learn for themselves the new things that the school children have learned!  

Please! Consider giving a few dollars of your own to help this mission to educate, feed, and save lives in rural Uganda.

Grace Onyait and I are overwhelmed by your generosity and graciousness.
