Think Humanity "To help save lives and provide hope for refugees and underdeveloped communities in Africa." Please visit www.thinkhumanity.org for more information.

Think Humanity began assisting refugees with bed nets in the Kyangwali Refugee Settlement Camp in May 2007 and Think Humanity became a registered nonprofit organization in December 2007. The genesis of Think Humanity began in 2006, when Aimee Heckel traveled to Uganda as a Boulder Daily Camera journalist on assignment. She visited the Kyangwali Refugee Settlement Camp in the most rural region of western Uganda near the border of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. This trip brought light to the devastating conditions refugees were facing. Lack of education, underdevelopment, rampant malaria and other diseases were leaving the refugees in a state of hopelessness.

Marvis and Fatuma are sponsored by the Keefe family. They have sponsored Fatuma for very many years. Marvis is sponsored for her first year and just joined us in S-1. Fatuma is in S-5.
They each wrote their own letter in return from a letter and photos that they had received.
Ester sees that the girls receive their letters quickly. The girls always respond back quickly, unless they are on school break or in exams.

These six students seem to never forget to write to their sponsors, Barbara and Arlo. Whether each writes or they write one letter as a group, they make sure and communicate back and they send big smiles along with their letters!

Elizabeth Doreen wrote a letter to her sponsor-- Debbie. The thing that I love about Elizabeth is her big smile. That was the first thing that I noticed when we were recruiting new Senior 1 girls last January. She really has a lot to smile about! She was sponsored by a wonderful person, she was chosen out of many girls to be sponsored for 100% of her education, and she is in a safe place where she is fed and educated.

Recently we gave out 570 mosquito nets in Mukarange Village in Kyangwali Refugee Settlement Camp. As said in the video, TH did this along with Bluebird Soccer Academy. Nets were given to children in sports, to children under the age of 5, and expectant mothers. Along with mosquito nets, mama kits were given to pregnant mothers. Thank you , Birthing Kit Foundation Australia for the mama kits.

We were in need of more tables and benches in the dining area. Some girls were sitting out on the veranda. We thank Debbie Clark for providing six benches and three tables so that all students can sit in the dining area. Now they can all spend breakfast, lunch, and dinner time together.

This well was dedicated in honor of Carol Cook by Bill and Linda Ives. (The plaque shows a slight error). Located in Kimbyana Village, Hoima District, the well was donated through the 2026 Mission is Possible XXVI of Faith Fellowship Church in Melbourne, Florida.
Serving more than 2,700 people, this is one of the larger communities served by a well we have constructed.
Presently, the community members are relying on an unprotected water source shared with animals. Once the well is completed and dedicated, they will have access to a safer source of water for their families.
Thank you, Bill and Linda, Mission is Possible 2026, and Faith Fellowship Church.

Today, the Uganda Certificate of Education (UCE) Senior 4 exams began. Our students have studied hard throughout the year, and now it is time for them to show the fruits of their hard work. We wish them all the best and keep them in our thoughts and prayers as they take this important step toward their future.

Here are the four October Acholi Breakfast Club birthday children. Is it a coincidence that the ABC began in October 2020, six years ago? What a wonderful time to celebrate. Happy birthday Aggrey, Ronny, Gladys, and Ritah!
Thank you Ndelo Peter and Margret for organizing the day, making cakes, and shopping!

Happy 16th birthday to Gladys! She was 10 years old when she was chosen to be a part of the ABC in October 2020. This was during a time when children were not in school due to the COVID 19 pandemic. Orphans were exposed to child labor, no breakfast, and caregivers were without work. Her father had died due to an unsuccessful surgery leaving the mother to sell silverfish on the streets. During Covid, street vendors were not allowed.
Today though, Gladys is a strong young women preparing for her Primary Leaving Exam. If she does well, she will be a part of Think Humanity Secondary School in 2027.
She lost her sponsor a couple of years ago and Debbie Clark took that over so that Gladys would not have to end her primary school education.
Happy birthday to Gladys. We hope she does well on her Primary Leaving Exam (PLE).
