Immediate needs
The most pressing short-term needs: At this time, we need:
- Prayer Partners
- Financial help;
More urgently, we need support for FYO projects, Funds towards the
child sponsorship program, Land for FYO orphanage, accommodation for
staff and children and fixtures and fittings. We also need donors to be
able to ship over second hand clothing, shoes, toys etc. Taxes are
levied on these items so we normally wait until we have accumulated
quite a lot to make economic sense. We need money to ship over
medicines and books. Please contact us for more detailed information.
- Expertise:
In the short run - How to fund raise, How to administrate properly to
the satisfaction of donors, how to create P.R., After we set up a
proper place where volunteers can stay, we shall need some basic
education teachers and some social workers. In the long run - How to
access EEC funds for such projects, and for continuation purposes, how
to create an income base for the foundation to become self-sustaining.
- Donations in kind:
Time, Books, Hygiene products, computers, medicine and first aid kits,
clothes, shoes, toys, bicycles, sport equipment, Training equipment
such as Sewing machines, lab equipment for schools, Stationary, vehicle
contributions…
- More board members (voluntary) because we cannot do everything by ourselves.
NOTE:
With additional funding we could expand even faster, throughout more
districts in Uganda , thus positively affecting the lives of more
children.
