Africa - One Man's Journey

Ambassadors of Hope International working in East Africa

 

Ambassadors of Hope International is a foundation dedicated to the cause of empowering children and young people in Uganda and India.  On these pages you see our involvement in Uganda where we work with destitute children from the slums of Kampala.  Children, who without he help of the donors to Ambassadors of Hope International would have a bleak future, but because of giving people such as you, many children from the slums of Kampala are able to attend  schools we support, have schoolbooks and supplies, uniforms, a proper meal and receive an education that exceeds the government standards by far.

We work in partnership with Alpha and Omega Ministries who have worked there for many years empowering orphaned and destitute Ugandan children through  caring education.  That is the only way out of poverty for these kids and gives them a future and hope.

Today, you can help a young person, a boy or a girl and give them an encouragement in life through your one time or ongoing donation.  It is amazing what a few dollars are able to do, what changes such a gift will bring about.

Should you have any question...feel free to write to me and ask...We would love for you to come to Uganda and visit us and the children...It be our delight to welcome you to the friendliest country in Africa...Thank you for your help and support...jon

How Can I Help? 

What Can I do to help a Child in Africa?

Since the early nineties I  have been involved with caring for children.  Last year we formed Ambassadors of Hope International, a registered non-profit organization in the USA .dedicated to working with the children of Uganda and East Africa, children who are born into slums and have little to hope for unless  someone cares and makes a difference in their lives by coming and giving their time, by someone sponsoring a child so that they can get an ongoing education. Many people give a donation that pooled with others translates into help for a child, a hope filled  future.

If you are interested in helping in any way, please contact me by email at jonblanc@kabiza.com  or you can send a donation by check to:

Ambassadors of Hope International, PO Box 2974, Blaine Wa 98231Ambassadors of Hope International - PO Box 2974, Blaine WA 98231

You will receive a tax receipt if you are in the USA and a detailed account of what will happen with your donation.  Less than 10% if any, will be used to handle your gift. In the USA everyone is a volunteer and there are no employees.  The money is sent to Alpha and Omega Ministries where it is administered by qualified staff-members, some of whom have worked with Ugandan children for over 20 years.

If you desire toPick the Batik of your choice... sponsor a child with a monthly donation, it is $25 per month or $300 per year in one donation.  You will receive a picture and background of a child, 4 letters a year and reports from the teachers on the progress of the child. You can also visit your sponsored child in Uganda and actually work at the school where your child attends. We will send you photographs of your child in class, eating lunch, playing.   Thank you for caring...jon

We do have a special gift for you for any donation over 25 dollars, or the sponsorship of a child.  We have various beautiful 20" by 30" hand made in Uganda Batiks that we will send to you with the receipt for your donation.  You can pick out your batik today and email me your choice along with your planned donation, name and address.

  Take a look at the Batiks.
