Apac School in Uganda

We are so thrilled to be sponsoring a little girl named Sydla Agono in Uganda( she is the cutie in the pink shirt). Now she will have the opportunity to go to school, own some supplies for school and a uniform to wear. She is 5 years old and lives with her hard working mother and 4 siblings. Her mom works in a stone quarry but cannot afford to put all of her children in school. She appears to be the youngest of her siblings so I can't wait to hear how happy her family will be for her. I wonder if the older kids have gone to school.

This is the best $35 I have ever spent!!! Sydla will get to go to school for a year on only $35. I bet if every person skipped the McDonald's drive-thru and sponsored one child for a year on the $35 that they would spend getting clotted arteries..... the Apac and CU Schools would be packed.

The Apac School is a sister school that has been built in the village Apac, just north of Kampala, and they are adding classrooms as funds permit. Their website is:

So we have made some school and hygiene kits and I inquired as to where I should send these and the Coordinator for Canada lives in Montreal and is traveling to Uganda in July and has offered to take them with us. BONUS!!! Now I know that they will actually make it there and Kate is going to take photos and video of Sydla when she receives our gifts and letters!! I can't wait!!!
