Thank you to Pastor JIm Welch for your continued support and thank you Beau Abdulla and Living Water International for making it happen! |

SHOE PROJECTImagine not having even one pair of shoes! Or imagine that to have a pair but they are falling apart! That was the reality for the children at Jireh Children’s Center. The pictures you see in the video montage were taken in October of 2010. You may not be able to see the condition of the feet in some of the photos but without shoes the children suffer with “Jiggers” a very painful condition. Croc's are the perfect shoe for thsi climate and we cannot thank the amazing people at this wonderful company enough for coming alongside us and providing shoes for every child at the center! You Rock CROC's

THE ROCKET STOVECooking for more than 200 people on a daily basis is a challenge in the best of conditions but when you depend on firewood for heat it makes that track even more difficult.
In june of 2011 US2UGANDA4life in partnership with Fred Colgan at Aprovecho in Eugene Oregon were able to revolutionize the cooking process at the Children's center. The rocket stove, in addition to reducing the needed firewood by 80% was able to increase the cooking time from over two hours to less than 30 minutes! Just amazing.
