This year, as we welcomed eighteen new volunteers to the St. Jerome COVE Campus, they were inspired by this life altering experience. Classrooms were painted, a swing set was built, soccer uniforms were delivered, the basketball court is under construction, and classes on infection control were held for the
children. The community was also engaged when a representative from the University of Illinois presented a successful one-day seminar on marketplace training in agriculture and small business to community leaders, and COVE parents/ guardians.  

 

Sarah, a Peace Corps volunteer, commented on how happy the children seemed to be. During the interviews with the children, it was confirmed. The children love the beauty of their new environment, they love their teachers, they love the opportunity to learn and above all they have a career goal in mind. There is hope for the future.

 

We are committed to continuing this journey of breaking the cycle of poverty and allowing the children to be placed in a position to sustain themselves and their families in the future.  

Please take time to look through the COVE brochure or go to
www.covealliance.org for more information about our accomplishments, our future, and how you can truly impact the lives of those less fortunate. Your financial donation and continued support can help accomplish these goals and we hope you will help see this vision come to life.  

 

Thank you for your continued support!

 

 

 

And so, as of January 1, 2012 Kathy Brosmith will work with all of you as Chair of our Sponsorship Program. She is anxious to begin and feels blessed to have been a member of COVE Alliance since 2006. I am sure she will provide you with the utmost respect and
cooperation you deserve. Please watch for changes in contact information and mailing in your renewal fees after December 3. Thank you for allowing me to serve you. May our Lord bless you for all your support of this worthy cause. This is one charitable organization where you can be assured that all monies donated go directly to COVE Uganda, all officers and board members are volunteers.
