October Update

PFP Annual Online Auction BEGINS!

Think Christmas, Chanukah, Kwanzaa and birthdays gifts. Think of you! Do your shopping AND make a world of difference to 45 (soon to be 50!) children!

The auction launches October 9th! There are hundreds of items, something for everyone. Gift cards, resort stays, river rafting, hot air balloon rides, a bicycle, artwork, crafts, home decor, jewelry and everything in-between! Again, a big thank you to all of those who donated items!

We have a lofty fundraising goal, but we know that we can reach it with your help! We would appreciate your help in spreading the word about the auction as well! How about sending it out to your contact list?! Remember that 100% of the proceeds go directly to the children (no overhead).

The Kids are Back at School!

The children are back at boarding school. Cute photos below! Their next holiday will be at the end of November.

The t-shirts have arrived! These will be used for group photos and field trips. We'll post a photo of the kids in them once we have one!

Sponsorship Opportunities

1. We are currently looking for sponsors for several girls we are hoping to assist. Many of these girls have been living on the streets or slums and are going without schooling. They have little access to food, clean drinking water and toilet facilities. Most of them are orphaned as well. We have several sponsors lined up (thank you!!!), but we are in need of more. Sponsorship is $65 per month for a half sponsor and $130 per month for a full. Sponsorship covers boarding school fees, clothes, food, medical (general, dental, mental), and much more.

"SAVE A GIRL, SAVE A GENERATION."

"Did you know that right now, 62 million girls around the world are not in school, and in some countries, fewer than ten percent of girls complete high school (as compared to 85 percent in the U.S.)? 

Did you know that when girls are educated, they go on to earn higher wages, get married later, and have healthier children who are more likely to attend school themselves? 

So you might be wondering: why on earth are so many girls worldwide not in school?"

Please let us know if you're interested in helping us with this important cause. You can email hope@peaceforpaulfoundation.org for more information.

2. We are on the lookout for more PFP Jr. sponsors. The new PFPJ program allows us to help a larger number of needy Ugandan children obtain an education. The children who benefit from our PFP Junior Program live in our neighborhood and are unable to afford school fees, uniform fees and school supplies. Because they have families to look after them, these children will not be living in our home. Rather, these children will live with their families and be sponsored through PFP for education costs only.

Here are some of our current PFPJ kids!
