Progress Made, Support Still Needed

By Victoria Spencer | President and Founder

Dear Friends and Supporters,

I hope this message finds you well. I'm writing to share an important update on our construction project and to thank you for your generous support so far.

Thanks to your contributions, we’ve made meaningful progress. We’ve begun construction—clearing the land, leveling it, and building the foundation up to window level. However, we’ve encountered some unforeseen challenges that have paused our momentum.

Due to a funding shortfall, construction is currently on hold.

We faced unexpected complications with land leveling and incurred additional costs to access the site, which lacks a proper road. Additionally, essential components such as the kitchen, toilets and washing facilities, and utility hookups were not included in our original estimate.

To move forward and complete the project, we still need approximately $10,000 USD. These funds will help us:

  • Complete the building structure
  • Construct toilet and washing facilities
  • Install a kitchen
  • Hook up water and electricity
  • Build a stable access road to the orphanage

Please note that the previous link to the construction project is no longer valid, as the short-term campaign has expired. A new project link will be available soon.

In the meantime, if you would like to contribute, donations can be made through the main MCCF page on GlobalGiving:

 https://www.globalgiving.org/projects/sustainable-solutions-for-orphans-in-rural-uganda/

We are deeply grateful for your continued support, prayers, and generosity. Your kindness is making a real difference, and we are committed to seeing this important work through to completion.

With heartfelt thanks,

Victoria, Save Children of Mbale
