Where your money goes:
Your generosity is the reason Into Your Hands is able to do so much good for the Makondo community. Without you, our programs would not exist. Into Your Hands is entirely dependent on your good will and desire to change the lives of young people in need. The youth of the Makondo area suffer from disease, poverty, and in some cases, even neglect. A general donation to Into Your Hands helps us further our mission to improve rural communities in Uganda by providing access to affordable education. To donate towards a specific need, view our wish list below and include a note with your donation. For a copy of our 2008 Annual Report, click here.
Wish List 2009
Provide an education. Sponsor a student.
For
$300 a year, you can provide a Makondo youth with
an education through our Hands of Hope Scholarship
Program. As a sponsor, your student will receive full
tuition, school uniforms, and schools supplies; and you will
receive regular updates from your student. Our
goal for 2010 is to sponsor 60 new students. To

Purchase a pig!
$200
will give an orphaned or disadvantaged youth a chance to start
their own piggery business. After completing a training
program and building a piglet shelter at their home, the
students receive a female piglet to rear. Once the female
pig is mature and delivers a litter, the new piglets are sold at
the market for additional income which pays for household items
such as mattresses, soap, clothing, food, and school fees.
Our goal for 2010 is to provide pigs and training for 30
new students. Find out more about the
Send a Piglet Home Program!

Start a School-Based Business!
Our
young entrepreneurs are eager to experience the success that
comes with sound business management. You can help by
"investing" in a St. Denis Self-Sufficiency Project
business. Through these school businesses, the students will
learn about best business practices and at the same time,
generate much needed income for the school. Learn more about the
projects. Click here.
Build latrines for the boys dormitory
Good
health is essential to one's well being. It is difficult
to maintain good health and hygiene without proper facilities
such as latrines and showers. Your donation of any
amount will help finish this very important project.

Purchase books for the school library
Books
are a rare luxury in Uganda. The school has a brand new,
empty library. Help us fill it with books. St. Denis
has requested a wish list of 140 books. For $20
you can help sponsor a book for the library. If you wish,
the book can be donated in your name or in the name of someone
you wish to honor. Click here to
donate a specific book and view the St.
Denis Wish List.
Help orphaned or disabled children
Orphaned
and disabled children face an uphill struggle. Many
children with disabilities are neglected by family members
because they are considered bad luck and a burden on the family.
Through the Medical Missionaries of Mary, we are able to help a
few of these unfortunate children. Your donation in any
amount will help children like Paul receive home tutoring and
regular monitoring. Click here to find out more about our
Hands of Mercy Program.
