Original Post
As many of you know our team members Tyler & Madison are in Uganda finalizing the adoption of their beautiful daughter and will be returning home soon. While they have been there waiting, they have been presented with a huge need and we have decided we need to help fulfill it.
So here’s the deal, the home their daughter stayed in is Peace Transitional Home, (PTH). PTH is renting a space that accommodates only 20 children. Recently PTH was able to purchase some land outside of the city and is now building a babies home that will accommodate 50 children! The problem is they do not have access to public water where the new PTH will be.
There are 2 options: 1) Buy large tanks and pay to have water delivered OR 2) dig a well. The best option over the long term would be to dig a well but it is expensive! The cost of the well is $2,200.00.
Here is how we can help fill this need starting today, (11/18) and running through next Wednesday (11/25), we will run a 7 day fundraiser to fund this well! All proceeds donated through our Paypal account will go directly to fund this well at Peace Transitional Home. We cannot think of a better way to celebrate Thanksgiving! Thank you all so much for your support and generosity!
WE is stronger than ME!
