Your gift will make such a difference!

  

We work hard to keep costs down and make the best possible use of your donations. We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization headquartered in Colorado. Our nonprofit taxpayer ID is 26-0767575.

Thank yous are in order.  First, a big thank you to all our event volunteers who have signed up to staff tables at one or more events during this last busy quarter of the year! We still have some openings left if you would like to help out in this very important effort of marketing our 200+ Ugandan women's beaded jewelry and craft products.

 

Secondly, a hearty thanks to the over fifty sponsors, donors, volunteers and supporters who attended our September 24th open house for our Ugandan project coordinator. We had a delightful time relaxing, mingling and welcoming David Ocitti to the United States. As always, your support is inspiring!

 

Peace,

Carol Davis, President

  

 

 

 

 

David with the Sumner family, long-time sponsors

While in Colorado, David's schedule was quite busy. He spoke to a local church group, spoke at the downtown Denver International Peace Day, and visited a local Castle Rock elementary school where he spoke to the fifth graders. He was also able to meet with the C.U. Boulder student team that is currently working on a strategic plan for our northern Uganda community's clinic. 

 

Besides his speaking engagements, David, saw our Colorado head office operations first hand and was able to learn more about what goes into preparing for bead events, and shipping web site orders and bead party packages.  He especially enjoyed the open house we hosted for him where he got to meet many sponsors and donors. He also visited a small scale organic farm in Boulder with one of Outreach Uganda's board members, and attended the last Rockies game of the season with another board member. More... 

Fundraising campaign seeks to bring immunizations to Agwata children

Nurse Grace with Mwaka at the Agwata clinic

Help Mwaka and other children and babies in Agwata to be able to receive needed immunizations in their local Agwata clinic. Currently, they must travel either 17 or 31 kilometers to the next nearest health centers to receive needed immunizations. Many are unable to do this.

Outreach Uganda is currently fundraising for a small motorcycle. This will allow the clinic  to pick up and return, once per week, a cooler with needed immunizations from the larger sub-county health center.  Total needed: $1,000, which includes the cost of the motorcycle and fuel for six months.
