Educating Bujaga's Children!

During my 1994 visit to Bujaga we saw hundreds of children of all ages roaming around the countryside. They seemed to be doing nothing. When I inquired about all these kids I was told that it was normal. Most of their parents have died of AIDS and they have no where to go. I asked about schooling.
None of them attended school because of the geat cost associated.

To send one child to school for a year cost only $9 Canadian!

The Crusade:
My vision was to send all the Kids in the village of Bujaga to school on an ongoing basis.
My Dad took up the challenge.

That year, 1994 we sent 2 kids to school.
By 2003 - we sent 300 kids to school.
By 2004 - we sent 1,000 kids to school
By 2005 - we sent 2,600 kids to school

Every child that gets to go to school has the ability to learn and to change the face of Africa!

You may too be an instrumental part. You may be assured that the entire money you donate will go directly to the childs education. NOTHING EVER goes for administration or any other purpose.

I would like to thank the many, many individuals who share the vision of educating Bujaga's children. They are too numerous to mention.

If you would like to help out and send a child(ren) to school please feel free to email us at,

Remember: If you change a childs life, you may just change the world...
