SNH anticipates close to 200 children and their care givers to attend and desire to bless each family with a Christmas meal (complete with cake)! SNH also desires to give Christmas gifts of bars of soap and mosquito nets to the children enrolled in SNH. Hence the goal is to raise $600 US for the Christmas party!
Please read the letter from our Director Sherinah to learn more:
To whom it may concern.
My name is Nakiyemba Shamim, aka Sherinah. I work at Nakaseke based charity called Sherinah's New Hope for Children with Disability Ministry (SNH) that provides children with special needs the opportunity to have access to education, health care, and all form of social services through child sponsorship and general donation from concerned people around the world. Most of those children come from low income families therefore it's a passion to help the celebrated Christmas in special way...last year's fundraising for Christmas was tremendously successful we raised funds and we were able to feed over 100 children and their care givers. This year we expect to feed more children due to the fact, we enrolled a number of new children who don't have a sponsor yet to date.
We have embarked on on fundraising campaign to help us us raise enough funds to be able to help more than double the number of kids last year. We would be delighted if you can help SNH to achieve its goals by donating a monetary donation. This year our goal is to raise $600 in which the 550 will go towards Christmas party and this will include Christmas meal, Christmas cake, 2 bars of soap for each of enrolled child, a mosquito net, plus $5 cash to each of enrolled child...the $50 will go towards the construction of the community church and a center where our children gather for our center days.
We are well aware that it may some time be difficult to convince people to donate especially when Christmas is close, but be aware that there there are many others who find themselves in worse predicaments. SNH will be happy to accept any form of help.
Please consider to helping SNH kids to enjoy the coming Christmas.
Also feel free to learn more about our work we do.
