KIDS HELPING KIDS

 

Cierra, Bree and Aine are doing something to make a difference...

About a week or so ago Cierra, Bree and Aine had a lemonade

stand on our street. We walked over to purchase some lemonade

and support whatever they were raising money for. We asked them

what they were going to do with the money they raise? They said,

"we want to give it to charity but we do not know how to do it or

who to give it to." We then shared with them about the schools we

have in Uganda called Donela. We asked them if they would like to give the money to them

and their response was a unanimous, Yes! Then the next weekend they went on to have a

garage sale selling their toys. These kids raised enough money for a new desk and supplies

for the children of Donela. They also wrote letters to the children at Donela telling them

what they were doing. Align is so deeply touched by these kids and their hearts to want to

give back. So many kids only care about getting more for themselves but not these kids,

they have HUGE hearts. We are so very proud of them and the children of Donela are so

thankful to them. We are hoping and praying that their story will inspire other children to

get involved and raise money for the kids at Donela. These kids have been great examples

of how we can all help if we would just have the hearts to do it and act on it!

If you have kids or know of any other kids that would like to be apart of this amazing kids

club (they are still thinking of a name) please contact us here at Align Ministries and we

will forward your information to them.

So Many Lives Changed Because Of One Desk

Thank you once again.....This desk is going to put a smile on

these children faces who have been doing their work kneeling on a

dirt floor and either using a chair seat as a desk, a church bench as

a desk or just using their lap to rest on and write. Now they can sit

comfortably and do their work without getting sore and dirty legs.

It is very difficult to concentrate and learn when you are so

uncomfortalbe, what a gift this new desk is!!!

Donela School is growing at an amazing rate. In September there will be over 700 children

attending. All of these children come from disadvantaged families, most living on $2.00 per

day or less. Many of the children attending Donela would not eat but maybe one small meal

a day consisting of a small amount of rice and beans. Donela provides them two nourishing

meals a day so they can pay attention and learn. The children are very excited at Donela

School where they are loved, nutured and given an excellent education. HELP us provide

desks, books and school supplies for these children. They are working hard to break the

cycle of poverty they are currently trapped in.
