Your Support Matters
Handcrafted by a ceramicist in Portland, Oregon, this tiny mug will be a beautiful—and meaningful—addition to your tree. It’s an exact replica of the mugs used at the Source Cafe in Jinja, with a velvet ribbon and bell to add to the holiday spirit.
A few things your donations are going towards:
Mvule program
4 types of tree seedlings for one village—$1,000
75 goats for one village—$3,605
What type of tree seedlings does the Mvule program plant?
Mvule, of course—and also musizi, giant lira, and fruit trees such as avocado
Life Skills program
Sanitary pads & training kits
100 girls—$673
50 girls—$337
What is in the sanitary pads kit? Cotton, wool, fabric, needle, thread, buttons, scissors, and patterns.
Why does Kibo teach female students and teachers how to make these and how to access their own future supplies? Often, female students will miss school during their menstrual cycle due to not having proper supplies that can lead to falling behind in school, embarrassment and potentially dropping out of school altogether.
Health Education program:
One Mama Kit—$16.30
30 Mama Kits—$489
30 bars of soap for one village—$56
What is a Mama Kit? When Ugandan women go to the hospital to have a baby, they have to take the necessary supplies with them. This includes gloves, a clamp, surgical blade, cord, candle, baby soap, towel, blanket, baby’s outfit and cap, along with other items.
