Three Great Reasons To Get Involved

My name is David Ssejinja, I would like to offer you a very warm welcome on behalf of the Board of the Ssejinja Children´s Foundation. Service is about communication, exchanging ideas and respecting the views of others. There are three great reasons to get involved with the Ssejinja Children´s Foundation:

1.    David Ssejinja founder of this Ssejinja Foundation grew up in Bira, Uganda where many of the Foundation services are carried out.  Through his dreams of bettering his home community, David was able to bring himself out of poverty, educate himself and now provides leadership to help hundreds of orphans and widows improve their daily lives.

2.    David Ssejinja personally oversees operations in America and in the local communities in Uganda.  He and his volunteer corps direct and implement all of the projects in Uganda.

3.    Your donation dollars are well spent!  There are no paid positions in the Ssejinja Foundation.  Less that 1% of every dollar goes to overhead expenses such as postage, printing, marketing.

Whatever you choose, know that your contribution -whether it is a financial commitment - or a commitment of your time - is valuable to us, and to the children of Africa. I encourage you to keep exploring our site and become innovative thinkers, practical learners and principled leaders. Thus making an African child smile.

Sincerely.

David Ssejinja.

Sponsorship Program You can make a difference. Most of the younger orphan children needing sponsors are children of Bbira,katosi and Ggenda villages. The women themselves have helped build the school for these orphaned children. However, most families at this school in theses villages live on less than $1 per day. They can barely feed their families so it is a struggle to pay the required funds to keep their orphaned students in school. At your option, you may also correspond via letters with your sponsored child to encourage them in their studies, and help them to become successful students. Your sponsorship payment helps pay the teachers at the school, buy curriculum materials, school supplies and equipment, required uniforms, and provide some supplement food for the child. You can choose annual, term or monthly payment Sponsors are encouraged to exchange letters with t Through Ssejinja Children’s Foundation s Sponsorship Program, students at Bira,Katosi,and Ggenda villages will be supported in their education so that they may use their education to develop their post-war country. This Program will initially serve as the cornerstone program for the organization and will primarily raise funds and sponsors for both the students and teachers of those schools. Through multi-media and informative presentations at local churches and universities, the program seeks to spread awareness of the need for primary and secondary education in Uganda.

Sponsor a Child As a child sponsor, you will see up close and personal through corresponding with your sponsored child. How you are helping to create a better, brighter life for the children in need.

For $300 a year, your sponsored child receives an education that will help them to become a good citizen of a unified community, in the village of Bira.

For $50 a month you can feed and educate and help build a school that will upgrade the classrooms. You will be helping children discover the power of knowledge.
