Our Christmas dinner initiative has been greatly enjoyed both by our giving and receiving families! This year we want to ensure 100 families and more experience the unexpected joy of Christmas! We touch families with special needs children, poor families, elderly, orphans, and individuals with disabilities.
We connect with children through our partners: Children’s Community Care, YOUFRA Youth Centre Lira, YOUFRA Tororo, YOUFRA Disabilities group Soroti, the Xaverians, and St Joseph College Padhola.
A good Christmas in Uganda is to attend Church followed by a dinner feast together. This includes eating meat–beef or goat along with tasty options of rice, matoke (banana), potatoes, and veggies with soda, then enjoying Christmas cake or cookies. The children look forward to this day all year long. Without our support this year’s Christmas dinner will be just another meal of beans and portio (corn meal).
This December we seek to bless 25 families with Christmas dinners, 75 seniors with Christmas bundles, and sponsor 3 Children’s Christmas parties. Will you help break the tedium of poverty and fill their hearts anew with love, hope, and joy this Christmas? Will you give $25 today to help one family or two seniors have a blessed and joyful Christmas dinner?
May God richly bless you and your family this Christmas season for unto us the Christ child is born ever new in our hearts!
