Lenten Alms Giving – Bunk Beds & Mattresses

St Joseph College Needs Triple Decker Bunk Beds

Thanks to the great renovations that we helped completed last year to the primary classroom block at St Joseph College the high school has attracted more students. They have 30 new Senior 1 (freshman) students who came with their mattresses but are currently sleeping on the floor in the dormitory.  They live too far away to be day students, so take advantage of boarding with the school.  

We are seeking $1,000 to buy 10 triple decker beds like the ones in the photo.  Will you help these 30 new students get a good night sleep so they can study well? Their presence helps with the financial stability and sustainability of the school too.

Will you contribute $100 for one bed for 3 students? Or $500 for five beds for 15 students?

YOUFRA Youth Centre Lira Needs Mattresses & Bedding

We are seeking an additional $500 to help 8 more needy children to join the YOUFRA Youth Centre education program. They are the children of former war abductees sitting at home not going to school at all because their parents can’t provide basic requirements of uniform, back packs, school materials, mattresses, sheets and blankets.  Will you help us buy 8 mattresses, 8 set of sheets, 8 blankets and school supplies for 8 more children?

Emma in photo below is happily making his bed after the beds were repainted this January. Help us put mattresses and children in the empty beds!

Thank you for your generous Lenten gift!
