PROVIDE EDUCATION FOR CHILDREN IN RAKAI UGANDA

As we come to the end of 2025 we thank God for HIS faithfulness! We finished the last academic term in early December with all of the students being promoted to their next grade level. We are currenlty averaging about 280 students an academic term! We get children from several villages in the area, many of whom are orphans so we not only provide free eduation but meals and daily needs as well. In between academic sessions we on average have 50 orphans stay on campus as they have no where to go! 

Our campus expanded as well but it is very primative! We built more classrooms from trees we cut from the jungle in order to accomodate the increased number of children coming each session and the 50 who stay on campus inbetween sessions. We were also able to build a new pit latrine for the campus. Some of our other successes include the ability to buy 7 acres to increase our campus! We are utilizing that land to grow maize and coffee to support the children and potentially the school. We also have some chickens and goats to supply food for the children.

God is bringing so many children to us who need daily necessities and an education that we can't keep up financially! We are in great need of a well as our rain water catchment system is also utilized by the village and no longer provides enough water for the school. And we have no power source currenlty and need to add solar to the campus as well. Since every thing raised goes to the school and its operations, we also need to raise the funds to send our US team over to Uganda to meet government officials, assess the needs and future needs of the school, plan the next 1-5 years of the school, and much more! Please pray for us and consider sharing the excess blessings God has given you with us so we can break the chains of poverty, lack of parental/custodial support for numerous children, and little to no education through the love of Jesus Christ, meeting daily life needs, and education!

The second quarter for us has been a huge blessing! We are currently up to almost 300 children attending the school each academic term! And when the term is out, we have about 50 orphaned children living on the campus. The school was also deemed large enough by the local educational authority that we are now part of the regions school atheltic league so our children can complete in athletics against other schools. On the financial front we were blessed enough to payoff our land loan from the bank that was used to aquire more land so we currently have an almost 7 acre campus. Part of that land has been used to plant coffee as a means to raise funds to operate the school. We have been growing so rapildy that our very limited resources have been overwhelmed. We need to drill a well on campus to secure a cleaner water, are currently building a second latrine, need to build at least two more classroom buildings and a dorm, need to install solar equipment, and need to cover increased costs for supplies and food as we have more children attending each session.
