[...] We believe that Ugandans in the Diaspora have a duty to support and promote initiatives that alleviate poverty in Uganda, and it needn’t cost a fortune. For instance, to sponsor a child at our school costs only £3.50 a month! Ugandans should be involved in such initiatives or start those initiatives themselves. If people are struggling financially, they can still lend their skills or volunteer their time to such initiatives. For example, at the moment, we have a range of activities that Ugandans in the Diaspora can support, such as the child sponsorship program. We also have 3 classrooms that need to be finished before the new school year begins. For details of these and other initiatives, please visit our website http://www.lethemhelpthemselves.org/projects [...]

Comment on An Open letter to the Minister of Works Uganda-Let Witness’ death be the last by A nice road through the village — Ethnic Supplies

A nice road through the village — Ethnic Supplies — Tue, 27 Sep 2011 20:44:19 +0000

[...] But for the folk of Ruhanga SW Uganda (see photo above), a nice road through their village has mixed blessings so to say. Ruhanga is on the main road to Kabale, Congo, Rwanda and a major tourist attraction- MOUNTAIN GORILLAS. Having this nice roads means that folk can get to hospital easily and can take advantage of passing trade but the nice road has become a death trap and only a few weeks ago we lost Witness a 4 year old in a car accident.
