Thank you
for supporting your grandmothers in Uganda!
You have
given 7,301 women opportunities and resources that they otherwise wouldn’t
have. So far this year, over 100 grandmother homes have been visited by the
Nyaka Grandmother Team to check on the well-being of your grandmothers. The
team ensures safe living conditions in the home, makes sure the grandmothers
have a healthy kitchen vegetable garden, sees that all of the grandchildren in
the home are going to school, and offers advice and other support as needed.
Grandmother Groups have also recently gathered to learn more
about income generating projects, food security, the importance of education, and
health and sanitation improvement. Two of the groups even had the opportunity
for exchange visits to learn more about income generating activities. During
the visits, the grandmothers were taught how to grow mushrooms. Your
grandmothers can now grow mushrooms for their own meals and can also grow
enough to sell and make a profit. Your donations make opportunities like this
possible. Thank you!
