Educate and support 60 orphans in Kampala

Hi Everyone,

We love February – the recently enrolled students have settled in, our teachers are enjoying their classes, our energetic support staff have everything spick and span after the holidays, the office is buzzing, and we've just released our latest newsletter! And to really energize us, the rain has come – we, the trees, the lawns and the gardens are all looking a little less wilted!

Lazarus, a Tanzanian pastor friend based in Arusha visited and gave us a sewing machine to train some children. GLS is now sewing their school uniforms and this will be reducing on big costs previously paid on uniforms. The saved small amount will now feed our GLH children. Thank you so much Lazarus…I attach a sowing machine photo with Ian learning.

With another milestone month starting, we’ve lots to tell you about in this newsletter too. Enjoy!
In this newsletter:

• The recently graduated Top students to primary one have settled in.
• Our Seventeen older kids returned to their schools P4 and above after a long school break.
• We had exciting Community Service Program. Kids did some clean work like sweeping, slashing, serving their fellow kids, …..
• Our intrepid God’s Love School, Jabarah, shares his last year experience-He can now see his good future! GLS has complete freedom and no harsh punishments given for mistakes made- GLS give dentations as a form of punishment which is a fair punishment compared to caning in others schools around – But again this is bad to be put in one place for 10 to15 minutes for the offense committed .I love Teacher Julius our head teacher!
• We have had Global Giving UK online learning Session-Tips on Organisation successions-Early planning, openness within the organisation …we heard experiences from different project leaders,
• A great interview with Jackeline’s guardian – her views on GLH! She enjoys GLH kind acts to Jackie like monthly food ratio given , Quick action when it comes to sickness, love shown as a real biological parents…. may God bless GLH.
• But how could we do all these without you? Many thanks to you all!

We are currently praying for our feeding needs and GLS extension as we share the costs. We have 34 M for the plot raised out of 40M needed, so any well wishers would kindly help us raise the balance. 25 pounds can feed and educate one orphan for a month. However, any amount donated means a lot to us .Please consider supporting us through Global Giving UK or Mark who can be contacted via email; markshawhamilton@hotmail.com or myself via; james.mukiibi@yahoo.com

All the best,
