Greetings from Mercy Rains!
 
As we near the end of 2019, our team has had time to reflect on the great generosity of our sponsors and donors. We had many goals set for 2019 and our hearts are full as we near the end of our first year as a non-profit. God has been so gracious, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the work He has done.

To all of our sponsors and donors, your work has truly been changing the lives of our wonderful children in Uganda. We are already working to set our goals for next year but are thrilled to have the opportunity to update you with all that has been accomplished.

Thank you for your giving hearts, and God bless.


“I will give thanks to you, Lord, with all my heart; I will tell of all your wonderful deeds.” - Psalm 9:1

Projects completed in 2019

• Playground equipment: Thanks to a donor the school now has playground equipment for the students.

• Fence: The Ugandan board expressed the need for a fence for child safety and protection for property. The fence was completed in November 2019.

• Upkeep on bathrooms: The bathrooms have been serviced and will continue to have ongoing maintenance to improve sanitation.

 

• First aid: The school now has one fully functioning first aid kit.

 

• Medical assistance: An agreement has been established with a local medical clinic that allows our students to receive medical care. The clinic then provides a bill and it is paid thank you to our donors.

• Teacher salaries: The Love Restoration staff received an increase in monthly pay. 

 

• Nutritional meals: The 215 students get a mid-morning snack and a good lunch while at school. Public schools in Uganda do not serve meals at school.

• Currently: Desks and cabinets are being purchased for the teachers. School supplies such as books, paper, pencils, etc. are being purchased for our students.
