Julius by the goat pen he is building


Happiness and joy in our family are beyond imagination for having got this golden moment to write this first letter to you my dear friends. On behalf of my wife and children and from the bottom of my heart wish to thank you very much for your generosity and support that you have been sending to us. I want to thank the Almighty God for hearing my prayers and having answered my prayers.

Before you came into my life, life was miserable, looking after my family and providing basic needs was increasingly becoming difficult and we had resorted to living without basic needs. I didn’t have enough food to feed them, money to pay their school fees and books, we never had enough clothes, no money for medical care but I want to tell you that since you started assisting us every thing is changing.

We have started to see some improvements because we can afford to eat food and we get satisfied, the first things we did was also to buy exercise books, pens and school uniform for my children, we have bought clothes and hired labour to clear land for planting pineapples which I want to grow on a large scale. We bought 2 chickens and already one has chicks and we have 2 goats. All these we never had before. Our GFR case workers have helped us in teaching us how to save and spend on priorities.

I am now 43 years of age while my wife is 36 years now, my children are still young, three of them are going to school and are studying well and there performance in class is average but given the current situation, I am convinced that they are going to improve. We grew crops and we hope the yields will be promising than those of last season. We hope to have plenty of food to eat now from our gardens. Our health is slowly improving and most of us are well apart from my wife Jackline who got skin rush but she will be fine because we bought Samona jelly which cures rushes.

I plan to improve on the condition of my house which we are staying in because it is in bad condition. I pray that I save much money to construct a strong house with iron sheets. I also want to start income generating activities for sustainability of our income so that we can be able to meet more family’s needs. I want to buy more domestic animals and chickens, mattresses and blankets plus other items that are important and urgent.

We are working hard saving every penny in order to execute our plans and move forward for better life. You have been there for us and because of you we are solving each need step by step. Lastly, I want to thank you for your support, if it wasn’t you life would still be miserable, but thank God we are well and life is changing to better each day that comes, we feel joy and have hope and trust in the Lord and we are committed to improving our welfare with your help. Thank you for loving us and God bless you so much!!

We love.
