Brandi Visits the Kids!

Sponsor Brandi went to visit the children during their holiday! Brandi headed the birthday party, took the children swimming, and also took them to Masese to visit their families. The children were so happy to see Auntie Brandi again and we are so grateful to her for her volunteer work!


Brandi had baby Longoli come and stay with the rest of the Peace for Paul family. She had a great time with her three older brothers!

July Update

Latest and Greatest:
  • We're working on NGO registration in Uganda. It's a long process but we've made a lot of progress so far. We have obtained signatures from the Local Chairs and the Resident District Commissioner and we are in the process of drafting our constitution.
  • Loputh's surgery on Wednesday July 14th went well. He's staying with his mother while he heals..
  • Prima is teaching the children computer skills on the new laptop that was donated to the home.
Fence and Goats for the Land

We're building a fence around our land and purchasing some goats to start grazing. Here is what Dr. Mufumba had to say about the purchasing of the goats:

"We met the people who do fencing and Fred will take them today to the site so that they can accurately measure the whole length of the PFP land and then give us the quotations. Then we'll send them to you. The idea of goats is welcome. The annual agricultural show in Jinja is starting soon next week and we shall go see the best breeds of goats and their costs."

Happy Birthday to Patrick (15) and Natule (8)!
