FUN WITH VISITORS

It was great fun for our children as they played and interacted with the team from SOARAWAY. The visitors were from Kampala and the U.S. They played games and we distributed books, pens and pencils to them.
Great things lie ahead in this new partnership!

A NEW HOPE

Visiting Justine and her family after the death of her mother. Her mum was their only bread winner. However, we thank God for the relative who has offered to take care of them. We are now looking for a sponsor for Jackyline, Justine's younger sister. We are continuing to support the family with basic necessities. We can, together, give this family a new hope.

  

Empowering the young generation with knowledge

Children need knowledge of themselves, their surroundings and their rights to make wise decisions and protect themselves from all forms of abuse.
In this centre day we focussed our sensitization on child trafficking and kidnap.We taught them about the trap of kidnappers and the risk factors.
Child kidnap is a common phenomenon in Uganda these days. So we thought to protect our children with information.They were taught how to avoid the traps of kidnappers and stay safe.

REVISION TIME

We are still helping our children to settle in and get used to the new school(for the new ones) and to their new classes. We therefore took time to do general revision with them and talk to them about the importance of staying in school and completing their studies.
We thank God that the ones who went to secondary school and one in vocational training are doing well.

This is a great improvement because some of them had grown tired of school and had started missing classes. However, now they are motivated and are concentrating.
Lets continue to work together to get more children out of the circle of poverty and illiteracy.

1st TERM OPENS

The long holiday is finally over!
Our children are back in school. We are glad to report that 4 more children were added to the project when they got new sponsers late last year. We welcome the new sponsors and congratulate them upon joining the FALCO family. The new children have joined the rest at their new school where uniform, lunch and books, pencils, pens etc shall be provided by us. They are so happy.

We appreciate the sponsors who continue to talk to their friends and family about sponsoring a child. We hope that more shall pick interest and join us so that, together, we may give a future and new joy to the vulnerable children whose future is at stake because of the constraints of poverty and illiteracy.

We bring you images of some children at their school, which is a private school in the village near their homes. This school provides lunch for the children, which is not the case with other schools.

By solving the problem of school lunch for our supported children, we ensure that theyre able to concentrate in class and live healthier lives.
Many children fail to concentrate and sometimes even drop out of school due to hunger. Many families cant afford a daily lunch and so children get disoriented and some lose interest in studying.
Many thanks to you our sponsors for making a big difference.
The letters from the children to their sponsors will soon be on their way!
