Doors Beyond Their Imagination
I came across this touching letter from Annamary Kobusinge of Fort Portal, Uganda and wanted to share it with you. She was 10 years old when she wrote this in 2009. Annamary is now 14 years old and receives school fees from her sponsor for a year now. Read how much faith and hope this little girl possesses. Of course, I have left the letter in her words so you can capture the full essence of her passion for an education.
My Name is Kobusinge Annamary. I stay in Kyogya. I am an orphan aged 10 years. All my parents died when I was still young. I live with my grandmother. My grandmother was not having money to pay for me school fees when my parents died and I stop studying. Today I am not studying because of school fees.
I stayed home digging with my grandmother. After that I suffered a disease which I was not knowing. My grandmother tried to give me local medicine but she failed. I pray and God heard my prayers. The disease went away from me but my studies failed. I pray to God to have mercy on me to fight all dangers against me. I have knowledge but the problem is school fees.
I am praying hard that God doesn’t leave his people alone because we are living in a small house. I also want us to stay in a big house but through praying to God that one day we will stay in a big house and I will go back to school because I want to study. When God have mercy on me and I go back to school I will put in more effort work hand in hand. I will also pray God because the Lord says that whoever asks will be given. There I trust in God who help all orphans to have mercy on me that I will get the way to study. When God helps me and I study I will be wise.
When I have finished my studies, I will help other orphans through treating them. I will also pay school fees for some orphans in my church because I know the suffering of orphans and help old people who can’t help themselves. All these I can pass through them by praying and fasting.
God bless you as you read through my story. Amen
As a sponsor you do more than send funds to support orphans’ education. You open the doors of opportunity for them–Doors Beyond Their Imagination! Visit our web site at www.hhcharities.org and make a commitment to send an orphan to school this year. Next term starts in mid-May so there is still time to make an impact in an orphan’s life.

Sponsors Bring Hope into Disadvantaged Lives
A huge “Thank You” goes out to the sponsors of our Ugandan Orphans. Because of their sacrificial hearts, these students are making a difference in the community of Ngombe. We wanted to share this letter, written by the principal of the Ngombe Primary School, with our sponsors.
NGOMBE PRIMARY SCHOOL
9th March 2013 The Humanitarian Hands Charities
Pastor Ronald Kizito, Living Spring Church of Christ
Dear Sponsors: Regarding Appreciation—
Teachers, Parents and the entire community of Ngombe Primary School, appreciates the compassion hand you have rendered to our needy, orphans and vulnerable children in terms of school fees and scholastic materials through Pastor Kizito Ronald Living Spring church of Christ.
We are also working hard and our school performs very well but we are challenged by the following challenges:-
Lack of electricity. As we are in the Modern World, we need electricity so as to be able also to use computers.
Lack of computers
Most of our pupils are orphans and vulnerable.
We are grateful for what you are doing for us and pray that our Good Lord reward you abundantly.

Refugees: Shaping American Communities
I often wonder why refugees seek to alter their familiar world with one that is so unfamiliar and daunting. Yet, I admire the tenacity they have to seek a more promising future for themselves and their families. The refugees have sought to flee areas in this world that are so overwhelmingly detrimental to family lives and security. They risk leaving their loved ones and come to America where everything is strange, and most, not welcoming their arrival.
HHCharities remains excited and awaits the day when our Refugee Assistance Center will be completely furnished and ready to invite the Refugees into our new office. They will receive instructions in English as a Second Language, American Sign Language, and Nutritional and Financial Literacy. Hopefully, our Cultural Mentorship Program, led by Laurent Okuma of ASIS, will adapt them to our American behaviors, opening the door to a world that will gradually become their world.
The Refugees live in our communities, down the street from you or even next door. It is our opportunity to embrace them and assist them as they daily grow in knowledge and characteristics of our culture; in turn, as we learn theirs. Mary Pipher states, in her book, The Middle of Everywhere” regarding the youth, “…these kids had simple needs as well as complicated ones…Even small acts of kindness made a difference.” Just think—how would you want to be treated if you had to live in an extremely foreign land among totally different people who live by unfamiliar rules? I wonder!!!
HHCharities invites you to partner with us as we roll up our sleeves to engage the refugee families; helping them to walk down the American path and, at the same time, not encouraging them to discard their own cultural backgrounds.
