Have yourself a merry little Xmas...
mer, 2008/12/24 - 12:04 —...but don't forget also to think about the others whose Xmas is not as shiny and rich as yours! You can still help the children of Gamauli and Yoshinkhel by contributing a few dollars online on http://www.givemeaning.com/project/gamauli - watch that cute picture with the 110 caps already delivered to the children on http://www.nabuur.com/en/village/yoshinkhel/project/task/support-village...! Maybe you want to make a little collection also amongst your family while sitting together for Xmas?
What's new in Yoshinkhel?
Brainstorm ways for the school's feeding program to become sustainable
Step:
1
The school has a feeding program in place for the children. The community helps with some of the donated goods, but we need to find a way for the feeding program to function on its own. Help brainstorm ways to get donations and support for the long term.
Help to stock up the library with books and resource material
Step:
1
The education centre has established a small library, but it needs to be filled with books and resource materials.

Hi Tia,
This is a great start!
We have a literature review on School Feeding Programs (attached here) that I did a few months ago and incorporates some of the information from the WFP. They provide great information! USAID also has good info.
I'm going to try to open a wiki so that all the links can be put in one place - still have to figure out how to use it...
But as we find more programs that operate in Uganda or information on the costs of a program in Uganda, we can place them in the wiki.
Thanks and keep up the search!

Hi Everyone,
We need some volunteers to gather information on organizations working in Uganda that offer school feeding programs. If anyone has any information or contacts, or would like to gather research on this, please do so!

Min-this may be a good organization to contact about obtaining more books for the children at the school.
