Hello everyone,

I had a fantastic time in Uganda and miss everybody back there.

Hello together,

I need additional donations here at El Shadai. It would be wonderful, if we find some more who would donate some money. If you can"t donate yourself it would be kind if you could spread this message to friends.

Donations for the following things are needed:
- ca. 12 Euro (30.000 USH - Ugandan Shillings) for 10 kg ginger seedlings, to plant them in the El Shadai owned garden, so that they don"t need to buy this in the future and even can sell some
- ca. 36 Euro (90.000 USH) for 10 kg potato seedlings for the garden
- ca. 112 Euro (280.000 USH) for rice seedlings incl. planting for the garden (that can be paid in rates)
- ca. 68 Euro (70.000 USH) for plantane banana ssedlings incl. planting for the garden (that can be paid in rates)
- ca. 84 Euro (210.000 USH) for outstanding bills for food
- ca. 96 Euro (240.000 USH) for outstanding bills for medical treatment
- ca. 160 Euro (400.000 USH) for university fees, so that Agnes can finish her second year at university.

Please tell others about it, so that we can get all the needed donations together.

Thank you a lot also in the name of the El Shadai Family

Hello everzone,

I arrived well at El Shadai Home on Saturday, even if the flight was really long and I was very tired.

It seemed like I have been only away for a few days, the children welcomed me heartly and everyone is happy that I am back.

Last night and this morning it rained heavily and now everything is muddy.

Today I will do some visits in Jinja, I will visit some firends and surprise them.

Many greetings from Uganda
Meike

Hello everyone,

if you want to give money donations, I will list you the possibilities how you can do this:

- you can transfer me the money through a bank transaction (please contact me, so that I can send you my bank details)
- you can transfer me money through PayPal (for that you need to scroll down to the yellow button "Spenden" = that means donation in German)
- you can give it to me personally

Thank you!
Meike

Hello everyone,

for all who want to donate something, I created a list with possible donations.
But keep in mind that money donations are very appreciated because I can see in Ugnada what is needed and buy it there or pay some doctor bills.

Flashlights with crank or rechargeable batteries
Band Aids in all sizes
Wristwatch
Threads for friendship bracelets
Children DVDs in English
Baseball caps
Pens
Drawing books
Clothing:
Blouses for girls, shirts for boys (I got some), thin socks, underwear, skirts (not to short), pants for boys, black shoes (the clothing should be robust)
Tooth brushs
Battery recharger

Please be aware to ask me infront of sending me donations, because I need to check if I got it already from somebody else and if I have enough space in my luggage. And please don’t send me heavy and too big things.

Thank you a lot in advance!!

Best regards
Meike

Hello everyone,

I will fly to Uganda in May and stay for 3 weeks. I will depart on May 8th in Frankfurt (Germany) and arrive in entebbe (Uganda) a day later.

I am already very excited to see everybody again, the children, the home leader, all my friends in Jinja.

i will stay again at El Shadai Home, but won't take over special tasks like last year, because I want to enjoy my vacation without always checking the time.

Regarding donations i will let you know soon, because I first have to clarify how much free luggage I am alowed to take with me. Unfortunately money donations are always welcome!

Best regards
Meike
