Efforts to Educate the Needy Children of Uganda

ADOPT-A-MIND

EENU is a non-profit organization in the Republic of Uganda that is designed to provide for the welfare and education of the most needy children in northern and northeastern Uganda. These children are subject to abject poverty, disease or are forced to become criminals in order to survive.

Political unrest in Uganda contributes to many of the horrible tragedies that these children face. For two decades, the rebel group, "The Lord's Resistance Army". (LRA) has been battling the Government of Uganda for political supremacy. The ultimate goal of this army is complete control. In order to remain strong they increase their numbers by the forcible capture of children. Once a child is taken into captivity, the boys are used as soldiers or laborers, and the girls become sex slaves.

EENU has the unique opportunity to directly change and impact the lives of these children by providing educational opportunities which will develop the gifts and talents that God has given them. By sponsoring a child, you will be supplying food, education, health care and a safe place to grow. It is our hope that by offering a new way of life, and a brighter future for these children, they will be able to erase the pain of the personal and national tragedies that have befallen them.

Dispersal of all funds given to EENU would be used solely for the care and education of these children. No organizational costs will be incurred, since this is strictly a volunteer ministry.
