Both my parents have died from

AIDS

In my Ugandan village AIDS is called “The Killer Disease”. Abundant Life Orphanages 2009

On this day, a neighbor brought some food so my brothers Jimmy and Morris didn’t have to leave me in the hut while they looked for food.

We had one meal today so…

this was a good day! Abundant Life Orphanages 2009

Abundant Life Orphanages Mission: Providing Homes for Orphans in Africa Children preparing for Youth Rally!



All 15 of our children were living in our home, sleeping on comfortable beds, eating food daily, singing songs and dancing and attending a school 10 minutes away!



Because of the tough economic times many of our donors stopped their monthly support and our children had to return to the village.

• Today, our children are sleeping in mud and stick thatched huts, drinking diseased water, searching for food to eat daily and they may not be able to attend school because the priority of their extended families is to pay school fees for their biological children first.

During these tough economic times we will not forget the promise we made to their extended families to partner with them to care for our children!

We are prepared to welcome our children back home but we need your help! Abundant Life Orphanages 2009

It really does… take a village to raise a child! During these tough economic times you may not be able to sponsor one child. Considered asking, your family, your church, your school and your job to come together to sponsor 1 child.

Abundant Life Orphanages 2009

Consider Child Sponsorship The total cost to care for each child is $1,920 per year. Your sponsorship will provide: •HIV/AIDS testing, education and medical care (if needed)

•Food •Clothing •A place in our home with running water, a bed and loving Aunties providing child care •School fees/uniform/school lunch •Preventive health/dental care

•After school tutoring •School holiday arts, music and literacy camp •An annual family reunion visit and dinner with extended family in the village
