Assistance Needed to Purchase Playground Equipment for Beth Pipe and Nursery School at EWCV Uganda
We now have our new school without any playground equipment for the children. President, Jim Rosene, of Kids Around the World, wrote back to me to say that they are shipping out playground equipment in a 40 foot container to Uganda in ten days. We were told that there are two sets of equipment available ranging between $3500 to $7000 USD and asked if we have any funding to purchase a set for our new school. At this point we don’t have any funding at all as we have been concentrating on trying to complete our new school with any donations coming to EWCV. If there is any organization or individuals who would like to assist us with purchasing a set of playground equipment for our children, would you please let us know immediately so we can contact Jim to include us in the shipment? If you have any questions for Jim, you may wish to contact him at:
