This has been a tremendous help to them and has exceeded the amount to which we committed ourselves by 210.00. Every penny which has been collected is sent to Fr. Joachim, as there are no administration expenses deducted. It costs 100.00 per term per child for secondary education in Uganda. There is no free education available and the cost of living is high.
Every donation is needed, no matter how small.
Joachim is also a medical doctor. He runs a local surgery and is training the older orphans in medical aid work. Our sincere thanks go to members of the Parish of St. Aidan, Manchester, the Community of the Holy Apostles, Wigan and Orthodox friends in the Doncaster area.
