Orphans Know More is a relationally based partnership working to give orphans a Face, a Family and a Future. Our pilot project assists Ugandan families caring for 150 HIV/AIDS orphans and vulnerable children.
For 2008, we are again excited to announce that we have our very own Easter cards for sale! Each pack includes 5 cards and envelopes and features the photo shown. Proceeds will go towards the work of OKM in Uganda.
Cards are available to be picked up at the Oval from our office and the YWAM Bookstore, or delivered by post. Please email us on orphans@oval.com to place your order.
Don’t be late in buying a pack of Easter cards for your family and friends - they are selling quickly!
We are sorry to disappoint those of you who have been so creative and committed to raising money for chickens and income generating projects in the last two years. The good news is the hens given are laying and eggs are being sold. Our Canadian agriculturalist, working with OKM in Uganda, has said it would still be great to have a few more hens this year. But we’re not talking hundreds!
So what are the other challenges? We want to distribute improved seed (more…)
Orphans Know More are excited to announce our new fundraising project, Pounds for Pairs. Barefoot children are the norm in Uganda, but without pairs of shoes and uniforms they cannot attend school. Our friends have said that this is one of the constant needs as their children keep growing! Join us in raising Pounds for Pairs!! (more…)
Orphans Know More supports African families we know personally who have adopted orphans. Our pilot partnership is with Ugandan families who, 13 years ago, began responding to the needs of those infected and affected by HIV and AIDS.
Training community health workers and counselors brought them face to face with dying parents. “The heart cry of these parents is: ‘Who will look after my children when I am gone?’”
