Join us in giving a kid an opportunity to go to school and help provide some much needed nutrition!
You can help provide a school lunch by buying a basket of seeds for our school farms, buy a goat for a kid so they can sell the offspring and milk for school fees, buy a re-usable pad kit for a girl so she can stay in school, help build a latrine or water well so kids can stay healthy. We believe every child should have the opportunity to an education and nutrition.
Global Village Connect connects classrooms and communities by developing practical solutions that improve health, education and economic opportunity through sustainable micro-enterprise.

Emergency Food Relief Update
As we all struggle with the stay-at-home orders and lock downs, I want to share with you what's now going on in Uganda with our partner communities. There are a number of families really struggling for survival, who literally do not have anything for a meal right now. With the lock-down now extended again, there is no means for a day laborer to earn money to buy food and it is not yet harvest time for those subsistence farmers.
For $75, you can help a family survive for one month.

Thank you to all who helped with the emergency food relief
A huge thank you to all who donated to our food relief program in Uganda!
We were able to feed over 5000 people for the months of March and April. The recipients from both Buyanga and Tikkun Olam Primary Schools were so grateful. Some of the people most in need do not have cell phones and were thrilled and surprised to see food and soap arrive at their homes. They were tears of joy and relief. Please know your donations were well spent.

Pads for Girls
Young women often drop out of school when they are menstruating as they do not have the necessary hygiene products. We will be raising funds to provide a "menstrual kit" to every young woman at Semei Kakungulu School and the older girls at Tikkun Olam Primary School. Funds will be collected by Global Village Connect and given directly to Days For Girls. Days For Girls in Namutumba make these kits and also educate girls. They are changing the status quo, through quality menstrual care solutions, health education, and income-generation opportunities.
