Would you have time to contact Steve Sematiko at stevemash.sematiko07@gmail.com in Kampala or John Paul Kibalama at kibalapaul@yahoo.org in Wobulenzi? They could help you help the children most in need- the orphans on the streets who have no one even to pay for their schooling. They would be most happy to assist you. Can't beleive I saw this site today and you are there now. It would be so awesome if you could help some of the kids they are working with. Stephen is trying to build an orphanage for them.
Take care,

So i hope you are having fun and you get my comment i sent you.

The pure joy on the faces of the children as they receive their gifts is wonderful. But looking at the warning signs posted throughout their school yard was shocking. We all have a tendency to go about our lives fretting about the insignificant, meanwhile forgetting that what we take for granted many others only dream of. Thank you Annette and the Uganda team for making the effort to remind us of this.

Dear Team and my dear sister Annette;
Just read your notes about the little girl, so little and yes so much.

We thank you for giving the bedkits to these children, but thank you for touching their hearts as well, as this story has touched us.

Thank you.

Hi Uganda team - It is so much fun to scroll through the photo album and remember the 2006 distribution that I had the honour of being part of.
Humber Valley UC held a special church service this morning with Theo and Ana helping with the children's story and Dave delivery a wonderful message about taking ACTION.
Debbie & Sieg- you would have been proud of them all.

Safe trip and please give my hugs to the Inner Wheel ladies.
