In January, Project Have Hope founding director,Karen, met with a group of students who had graduated from PHH’s scholastic sponsorship program to learn what they were up to. She never could have imagined the powerful meeting they would share and that an alumni committee would take shape.
Read a snippet from her most recent blog:
Tears threaten to overtake me as I look around the circle of graduates of PHH’s scholastic sponsorship program – two lawyers, two teachers, a doctor, a mechanical engineer, a civil engineer, an auto mechanic, a tailor, a beautician and the list goes on.
It seems like a lifetime has passed since I first met these children, now adults, who proudly proclaimed their childhood dreams to me. Like children everywhere, their dreams were lofty. Considering the circumstances into which they were born, I had doubted that they would become doctors and lawyers. Shame on me for doubting their dreams and their tenacity to achieve them.
The 2024 academic year has begun in Uganda, and we have three new children we've added to the program who are in need of sponsors. Will it be you?
For as little as $12.50 a month, you can be a child's hero.
We invite you to join us in empowering Ugandan children to create their own success stories.
