Thank you for the love and support that you are showing to children in Uganda!
Because of you, 411 children are able to go to school through the Bridges 4 Children program this year!
Because of you, 19 students are attending Nakaseke Teacher's College, and 9 are getting vocational training!
Now we're in the second term - about halfway through the school year. This is when students at Calvary Primary can get their hands dirty, learning to make things out of clay.
They've been learning about things that can be made in the community from the natural materials common to the area, like clay, banana fibers, sticks, and sisal. They made dolls, balls, ropes, and baskets from plant materials. They made pots, sauce pans, and water containers out of clay. Some even made toy cars and toy radios from clay. Pots were modeled after those used in Buganda and the Northern regions of Uganda.
It's good to see children discover new skills and interests as they work with their hands and try new things!
And you are making something great, too - YOU are making a big difference in children's lives!
Please join us on June 25th, when Microsoft YouthSpark is matching your donations by 100%! Your donations help children get the nutrition and education they need to for good health and a brighter future!
Matching starts exactly at noon EDT on June 25th - be sure to make your donation as close to that time as possible, because matching finds can run out fast!
As always, we thank God for you!
With Gratitude,
Kay
