July Update!

August Delegation

The August PFP delegation leaves in just a few short weeks for Uganda!  The delegation members are Heidi, Tomasz, Ellie , Beth, Amphy, and Lisa.  We are so looking forward to our visit!

Itinerary:
  • Conduct basic sex education and hygiene classes
  • Build a basketball hoop
  • Participate in the sports program
  • Celebrate all of the children's birthdays
  • Teach English to the women and man in Masese
  • Conduct a creative writing class
  • Take the children to Diddy's World
  • Take the children swimming
We will also be looking into purchasing additional property and the homes that we are currently renting.

Thank you to all of the sponsors and supporters of PFP who purchased backpacks and gifts for the children!  You are all so generous and we really appreciate you.  The children are going to be ecstatic when they receive their gifts!  We will take a lot of photos and post them in next month's blog post.

Special Meal

As promised, Emma prepared a beautiful meal at the PFP home and took it to the children at school!  They were very excited and grateful.  Thank you Emma for your hard work in preparation!

English Program 

The English program is still going very well!  PFP purchased a chalkboard, which has allowed Emma to teach and for the women to learn at a faster pace.  The class ranges from 35-55 (depending on the day) women and one man.







Learning the alphabet!
