Crisis in Uganda: Mosquito Attack!
Over time, screens and nets tear, and lose their effectiveness. It’s time for some new ones in Uganda! This summer was brutal for our Kinship Kids in Uganda, as dozens came down with malaria.

But thankfully, malaria is both treatable and preventable. Our Kinship Kids were treated and made full recoveries, but we need your help to make sure no more kids get sick.

Born in a Brewery: Emmanuel’s Story
Emmanuel’s parents loved him and his sisters. They worked hard to provide for their children, doing the only thing they knew how: brewing and selling alcohol. But this made for an unstable life for Emmanuel. His parents were in and out of jail constantly, and their run-ins with the law cost Emmanuel’s father his life. His mother died shortly after in a car accident. Emmanuel’s life had completely crumbled. He worked on small farms for scraps of food. His oldest sister got sick and died too. The only future Emmanuel could imagine was to just survive for one more day. Child Stories, Newsletter
