So lovely ones, I am leaving for UGANDA in just five days! I cannot believe it. I cannot believe how fast my time has gone by here in Kona. I received all my funds for outreach! Hallelujah! And thank you all so much for your prayers and support! Praise be to God for all your giving hearts. Now, I have just enough to make it there and back to Hawaii. However, I still have a need for some finances so that I can survive while in the beautiful country of Uganda. Because I have hopes of using my camera as a tool to bring awareness to injustice issues there, I have needs for film and equipment.
MY DREAM...
is to give a child a camera and see what they can do with it. To see the world through their eyes, through their lens. I hope to be able to bring cameras (disposable) to Uganda to give to the children. Can you imagine? I mean, wouldn't you like to see what the children of Uganda see? Kids who live in developing countries are so fascinated by the concept of photography. They constantly grab at the camera hoping to see what you see and get a glimpse of what is in that viewfinder. My hope is to teach the children of Arua how to use a camera and see what they can produce. I plan on developing the film and showcasing the photos in some form when I return from Africa. How would you feel about partnering with me in this?
If you like my idea and would like to help me make it happen, here's what you can do... Send cash or check to my home address. I am leaving soon and I will have limited access to internet while in Arua but please message me and I will give you more info and my address. A disposable camera is about 7-8 dollars each but give whatever you feel called to give.
Children are our hope and our future... wouldn't you like to get a glimpse of what it may look like?
Love you all so much and forever God bless.
