Build Safe Latrines for 100 Rural Families in Gulu

Dear Friends and Supporters,

Thank you for continuing to walk with us on the Safe Latrines for Rural Families journey. While we have not yet constructed an additional latrine since our last update, the project remains active and deeply important to us. We are committed to building safe, dignified sanitation facilities one family at a time, as funds become available.

In the coming period, we are preparing to construct 3–5 new latrines, depending on funding received. At the same time, we will use this quarter to visit the families who already received latrines, including Jennifer’s and Piloya’s families, to follow up on their wellbeing, assess usage, and ensure the facilities are serving them as intended. These visits help us strengthen accountability, learn from the families, and improve future construction.

This project is not a race—it is a long-term commitment to dignity, health, and safety for families who have lived too long without proper sanitation. Every donation received continues to be carefully stewarded, and each completed latrine represents lasting impact for an entire household for many years.

We are deeply grateful for your patience, trust, and continued support. Your generosity keeps this vision alive, and we look forward to sharing the next construction milestone with you soon.

With sincere appreciation,
Friends of Children Circle (FOCC) Uganda

We are so grateful for your continued support toward our Safe Latrines for Rural Families Project. Your generosity has already transformed lives, and we are excited to keep sharing this journey with you.

Since our last update, we have not yet begun the construction of another latrine. However, our vision remains strong: to ensure that rural families in Gulu can live with dignity, health, and safety. We are moving forward one latrine at a time, as and when funds come through. Each safe facility we build is not just a structure—it is a lifeline for children, parents, and grandparents who deserve better than the dangers of open defecation or unsafe latrines.

This project is not about speed, but about lasting change. Every gift you give is part of this transformation, and together, we are writing a new story for families who have waited too long for dignity and health. The progress may feel slow, but we know that with your continued partnership, many more families will soon receive safe, ventilated latrines that will serve them for years to come.

Thank you for standing with us. We invite you to keep sharing about this project within your circles—your advocacy and prayers are as powerful as your donations. Together, we are proving that change doesn’t always come all at once, but it surely comes when people choose to care.

With gratitude,
The FOCC Team
