HI FRIEND
i hope you are doing well….i am very great full of your work to these children and all the children are happy of what you are doing ……..
Adam i received the money you sent to me 956 $ and i was able to use the money to buy scholastic materials for the children, some more food , chairs, construction of a pit latrine, black boards, and chalk…….i am sorry i di not use the money for finishing the building as the priority was the above because the children could not stay at home without going to school , if so i could get problems with the Government
i spent 885$ to do the above as i will be sending you the receipts and photos for what i did with money ..i cant attach any thing on internet now network is very bad not enough it costs me too much when i try to attach anything ….on the money Adam sent i am remaining with 71 $ that i will deposit to the man who will be making doors and windows to shut the houses …and we pay him more when the shutters are finished,
Ann Nguyen was also able to send me some money to help my Grandma who is sick, help the Boy Innocent who has AIDS, to buy more chairs, and some more food …and it was done successfully thank God i got you my friends
about the foster homes on Monday the villagers were able to foster 105 children from endless summer camp children s village and they shall be helping these children with accommodation,parental love and one meal very day which is very very important to us …now we shall be responsible top provide two meals to these children every day, education ,clothes, medical care, monitoring and evaluation/home visits every after two weeks etc at we have been helping these children , monitoring the well being of these children in foster homes that will reqiure means of transport like maybe a bicycle or motor cycle to help us move to visit these children and may be help to carry a child when sick to the hospital ..these villagers will stay with these children for a period of 1 year and 6 months
now the houses we built shall be used as school for these children and the land shall be used for growing enough food to feed the children and also pray ground for local people, the children and guests/volunteers
during the period the children shall be in foster homes we are going to work hardly to create the land into a children s village where children can find homes,clinic,school,gardens etc as in our plans for a children s village then after one year and 6 months rthe children shall come back from the homes to the land where we are going to develop into their village ….i think that will be helpful to us since the cost of expenditures has reduced by one meal every day it surely makes a great sense
io will try to post the pictures of all the children in foster homes one by one with their foster parents ..i think that will make a great sence my friends
about the houses we still need your help to buy doors,windows and do the finishing , that is external and internal plastering and floor finishing with cement ……what is very important now is windows, doors and plastering
i was able to employ teachers 8 of them have already started to teach the children art and crafts, music dance and drummer, agriculture, computer skills, net and foot ball etc and each teacher need a pay of 45 $ per month 360 $ every month is needed to cover the cost of teachers …i was thinking that if any way you can get volunteers who can teach these children that would also help us to reduce the cost which will help us to develop the village …i am calling that if any one their would like to volunteer in Uganda he or she is welcome every one is welcome to endless summer camp children s village
let me stop from here now i will try to send the receipts and pictures soon the internet is good with network
thanks for your co operation and helping hand to these children and me
May the good lord bless you
