August Update!

2013 Annual Online Auction

Our fourth annual online auction is underway! We are currently collecting items for auction - anything from gift cards, to artwork, to jewelry, to electronics, to gift baskets, to vacation homes, etc! All items will be collected (or photographed) by mid-September and the catalog will be distributed for bidding early October. This year we have a lofty goal, but one that we believe we can reach! If you are able to contribute any item please contact one of the directors of PFP. 100% of the proceeds will benefit our 45 PFP children.

New Kids!

Thanks to generous sponsors and the efforts of our Ugandan directors and caretakers, eleven new children have joined the Peace for Paul family! They are adjusting well to their new surroundings and are excited to meet the other 34 children once they begin their holiday this month. Director Lisa McIntosh and her family will also be joining them for holiday. It will be a wonderful reunion!

School Visitation Day

Emma, Becky, Olivia, Innocent, and Fred took a beautiful meal to the children's school on visitation day. The children were so happy to see their caretakers and proudly gave them a tour of their school and current projects.

Farmer Fred Foods

Peace for Paul's farming business is doing very well so far! In fact we just had our first harvest. The intention of FFF is to produce more fresh food for our children and also to sell what is not used in our children's homes.
