Tarpaulins

Special Christmas Appeal!

This project is now complete. Our thanks to all those who contributed!

When the refugees arrived in Uganda in 2017 each family was given a tarpaulin to provide a waterproof roof to their mud hut. However, with the wind, rain and sun constantly battering them over the past 3 years, many have become worn and split and no longer provide good shelter.

After raising approximately £1000 over the Christmas period, a total of 57 tarpaulins were bought and delivered to 57 church leaders. Many pastors had damaged shelters and therefore couldn’t accomodate visitors. However, with the new tarpaulins delivered, the familes will now have the shelter to welcome visitors and be protected from the elements!

Our thanks to all those that donated over Christmas to the tarpaulin appeal!
