Delaware Community School
The students and faculty at Delaware Community School in Albany continue to be a source of caring and compassion. Under the guidance of second grade teacher Susan Fowler, the entire school recently had a "Jammies for Jajja's Kids" day where students, teachers and even the principal wore pajamas to school and donated money for for our boys.
We will see Susan Fowler and her class again in the spring when the children in Albany talk and sing with our boys in Kampala via Skype!

Uganda 2016
Are you curious about life in Africa? Would you like to spend time with Ronnie and the boys, share daily life with them and see what their school is like? Would you like to go on safari and see zebra, giraffes and elephants in the wild? Would you like to stretch your comfort level and have a life-changing experience in the process?
Plans are now beginning for our 2016 volunteer trip to Uganda. We will go in May and be in Uganda two weeks, with a day travel each way.
Please contact us soon if you are interested--space is limited!
