School begins, but ...

... there isn't enough funds for everyone. YCVM is spending every shilling it has to send the orphans back to school, but even that isn't enough. Only the lower grades are able to continue their education. Even beyond education, YCVM dreams of finishing the Ngora house and the boarding school construction, which will cost more than $100,000 USD. Silver and all of the YCVM board members ask for your prayers and contributions for the orphans of Eastern Uganda.


Here you see Patrick standing in a partially completed section of the Ngora house.




The children can't live in the house yet, since it doesn't have any doors and windows. It also needs plumbing, electricity, and interior finishing.





Here is Aeri standing with YCVM board members Patrick, Silver, and Grace, along with YCVM sponsored orphan Sarah, and RTC faculty Herbert. The roof of Silver's house is thatched papyrus reeds.
