Support
There’s loads of worthy things on Earth to donate to. If you’re interested, generally, in East Africa, food programs at elementary schools, assisting poor parents with school fees, or children’s dental hygiene, please consider contributing to my efforts to modestly but steadily improving the lot of the poorest people in the Luweero, Uganda area.
If the charity portion of your finances is already dedicated to something like your local children’s hospital, animal shelter, after-school program, arts initiative, food bank, or some other great cause, I wish every blessing on your donations. If you find my efforts in Uganda to be something you’d like to contribute to, please look at the different contribution options below.
Monthly Support or One-Time
Here are the items that transfer via Stripe to my Uganda account.
Some have told me that they would like to have any easy, automated way to send $20 or so my way every month, then receive a story at the end of each month that shows that it did some good. Others have told me they already have many "monthly" commitments, but would love to give a One-Time Donation, then receive the good stories as well. Others have told me they're dead broke, but would still love to read about how things are going.
Well, for virtually anyone who enjoys my writing, please sign up and you'll get your fill of it for free. There's no paywall or price tag. I will do my level best to ensure it's edifying.
If you wanted to read and offer some financial gifts, the One-Time and Monthly Options are just a click below.
Some Fun Smiles Out of Kasana Luweero
Below is the School Fees option, which has $100-$400 One-Time Payment Options. (Note: This is equivalent to using Zelle or Venmo. If those are preferred to this, I have those as well.)
If you are interested in helping but don't want anything continual or committed, this is an easy option. Click on the button, eliminate the number of "products" down to what you'd like to give, and that's it. Your gift is deeply appreciated and will be put to prudent use.
Or, if we connected about a continued sponsorship of a specific student, this is typically the easiest route. There are three school terms in Uganda (since Summers and Winters do not exist here), so I'll personally remind via phone or email when the term begins for another Single Payment.
My friend Winnie and her Jajja (Grandma), who dug ditches to pay for Winnie's school fees until an infection took the sight out of her right eye a few months ago. (Just one of hundreds of examples I can give.)
Below is for $10/Month
Below is for $20/Month
Below is for $40/month
If you wanted to donate more than $40/month to my time in Uganda, please contact me and, trust me, I'll be happy to create an easy path. I have Zelle, Venmo, and can within a couple minutes make a new Stripe Item that automatically takes any given amount from a provided account.
If you would like to help the Luweero district, but want to donate a large sum and have it be tax-deductible, please peruse this website:
This is about 45 minutes away from where I stay, and I cannot speak highly enough of it. Notre Dame’s Emma Katongole and his brother Joe Kakooza are amazing men of vision, and I anticipate BLI will continue to prosper.
