PFP On-Line Annual
Auction
A huge THANK YOU to everyone for making this years auction
the most successful auction we have had to date!! We surpassed our goal!! The
funding received will be used to build up our scholarship fund and to build a
new outdoor eating area and recreation area at Hope Home (the boys’ home). In
addition we will be embarking on the project of building a fence at Peace Home
(the girls’ home), this will allow us to start the growth of a large garden and
banana plantation. Our girls will begin to learn gardening and farming
skills!!

Also, many people made very generous donations to the
following categories: Vision & Hearing, Family Ties (we will be sending
some children in the month of November to visit family members they may not have
seen in a while), Sponsor a Smile, Book Project (novel reading program is being
developed) & mosquito nets at the girls home.

School Time!!
This past term we had seven children in a candidate class –
Primary 7. This program means they sat for their National Exams that will
determine the post secondary school they will be eligible to attend. We are
still awaiting results but the candidates are now home and feel confident their
tests went well. The seven children in the candidate class are: Michael, Mark,
Bosco, Tikol, Paul, Lotuke & Ajuna.
Our candidates: Michael, Bosco, Paul, Ajuna, Tikol and Lotuke (only Mark is missing from this pic!)
The rest of the children are still currently in school and
will be wrapping up their exams on the 28th of this month, and then
they will come home.

Supplemental Education
We are also developing additional
supplemental education curriculum at the moment. We currently have many new
careers for the career workshop that will be taught in December. We also hope
to have a basic English curriculum ready for the new girls coming in so that
they can have regular lessons along with anyone who may be struggling in
school.
Sponsorship
Opportunities
We are still currently
looking for a few sponsors for the girls we are bringing in this month. 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, THANK YOU!!!), but we are in need of a
couple 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.
Please let us know if you're interested in helping us with this
important cause. You can email hope@peaceforpaulfoundation.org for more
information regarding sponsorship.
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.
Sponsorship is $31/month. Imagine the difference that will
make! Please consider sponsoring one of our new kids. Contact us at hope@peaceforpaulfoundation.org if you have any questions
regarding this opportunity.
