Dear Contributors,
Thank you for your ongoing support of Grace Giving Globally. Your contributions are making a huge impact around the world by building the places and spaces in which churches and parachurch organizations operate!
We know it's been a while since our last update! We are proud to announce the completion of three more projects since our inception in August 2021, bringing our total impact to 4 projects across three organizations and two countries.
COMPLETED
Kitchen Construction and Land Purchase | Store of Hope Orphanage
Bugiri, Uganda | August 2022 The kitchen construction project is complete! Formerly, the orphanage would cook food outdoors, resulting in the children going to bed hungry if it rained. Our funds provided for the construction of an outdoor kitchen with three wood-burning stoves. Completed May 2022. We contributed funds for the purchase of farming land to provide more food for the orphanage, which is a critical need given the increases in worldwide food prices. It will make them more independent allowing them to grow food for themselves with the ability to also sell excess to others. A 10 acre plot was identified and purchased which is same side of street as other land owned and close by. The farmland will also help the kids learn farming skills. Completed August 2022.
Covered Outdoor Playground | Fellowship of San Antonio San Antonio, TX | December 2022 We contributed funds to construct a children's playground for the Kids' Day Out preschool program at the church, which supports children aged 18 months to pre-K 5. The preschool provides a Bible-based curriculum in small class settings to that questions can be answered, struggles will be seen, and encouragement can be given easily. The preschool is provided from Mondays to Thursdays from 9AM to 2PM. The program is currently oversubscribed and the church is seeking ways to expand availability. Completed December 2022.
