Send a gift to your child!

Morris excited after receiving gifts from his sponsor last June.
|
The highlight of ALL our outreach efforts is hand delivery of packages to the kids from their sponsors. In July, a group from Idaho will be going to Uganda in July. We want to send a one gallon zip lock bag filled with goodies for each child with the group.
Sponsors, this an opportunity to make a personal connection with your child! Since not all the children are sponsored, others are invited to help as well. Only one bag per child please and keep it as light as possible. You can send the bags to our address (H4U, 3550 Johnny Crk Rd, Pocatello, ID 83204) or contact syd@hands4uganda.org on where they can be dropped off. We need to have them by the end of June. See below for things that can and cannot be sent.
