The funds raised have been used to initiate four sewing centers, two of which are currently under construction. One center is in Kwar Kwar village in North Eastern Uganda, and another is being established in Kikondo village in the Eastern region.
Our hearts are so full and we are excited to announce that the first sewing center in Kwar Kwar (NE UGANDA) is officially up and running.
The second center is at roofing stage and many are thrilled to begin learning this new craft of sewing. We are truly thankful for all who have been supporting our 90th anniversary initiative

The challenge was that we give our offering in 9s....9 quarters, 9 dollars, 90 dollars,etc....As one of our ladies said "our thermometer exploded!" Within a few Sundays we had $2,070 and we were ready to close the campaign thrilled with this amount but the Church surprised us and said they would match our total...we were elated.
Amount raised: $4,140.00
