Help Us Cover School Costs for 60 Children in Uganda
This Giving Tuesday, we are asking for your help.
The children in our sponsorship program come from some of the poorest families in Eastern Uganda. Many are raised by single teenage mothers or elderly grandmothers caring for several orphaned grandchildren. Most families struggle with hunger and unstable income.
For these children, school is often the only steady and safe place they have. But a child cannot attend without a uniform, books, and basic supplies.
This year, school costs in Uganda have risen sharply. Uniforms, textbooks, and supplies now cost more. We do not want to increase the cost of sponsorship, so we are asking for help to cover the gap.
We have a $2,500 shortfall before the new school year begins.
Your Giving Tuesday gift will provide:
• Textbooks and exercise books
• School uniforms
• Pens, pencils, and basic supplies
• School bags and shoes for the most vulnerable children
Your support keeps a child in school.
It protects their education and strengthens their future.
Thank you for helping us close this gap and send every child to school prepared and confident

updates from Suubi:
• Grant for Stoves & New Groups – We received a grant from The MomCo to provide 1,000 energy-efficient cooking stoves and materials to start 20 new MomCo groups in Eastern Uganda. Inefficient stoves cause health problems and high fuel costs. These new stoves will reduce smoke and cut down on the wood or charcoal families need.
• Education Support – This term we registered 60 children for school and covered their fees. Education is one of the most lasting ways to break the cycle of poverty. We are still looking for 10 more sponsors—details are on our website.
• Eco-Friendly Staff Housing – With support from Cool Bricks (Delft, Netherlands), we are building two staff houses using special bricks that don’t require firing. They are strong, eco-friendly, and reduce deforestation. Soon our staff will have a much better place to live.
• Vacation Bible School – In December, we will host a Vacation Bible School for up to 600 children. It will be a joyful time of food, games, and songs. We are seeking funds to help feed the children who attend.
Thank you for your support!
