Just this morning Children\u2019s Hunger Relief Fund received an urgent request from our project and orphanage manager in Uganda. The water well for our 50 orphans has broken and $2,700 is needed in order to replace it. Not only do the lives of 50 children and our staff depend on this clean water resource<\/span> but the entire local village also comes to the well to find the only clean drinking water around.<\/p>\n

\"We<\/a>
We can’t let this child and many like him drink dirty water that could cause a deadly illness!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

We have attached photos from the dirty water that the children were drinking from before YOU, our generous CHRF donors granted them a miracle, the miracle of clean water. Our staff director is currently urgently searching for nearby water resources that they may be able to temporarily drink from but things do not look good.<\/p>\n

\"Without<\/a>
Without a Clean Water Well Our Children might have to turn to dirty puddles like this one for water.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Without YOUR help these children may have to drink from the dirty water on the ground again. Please, please don\u2019t let that happen.\u00a0 <\/b><\/p>\n

Our orphanage director Caleb explains in his own words the situation and the great need.<\/p>\n

\u201c<\/i>Dear Children\u2019s Hunger Relief Fund, <\/i><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/i>Our well\u00a0at the Children’s home in Matugga Uganda has broken down. It\u2019s the only source of clean water for the home and the community. For a few days now we have not had water, we have tried to buy water but it\u2019s very expensive. I am very worried the lives of 50 children at this home are in danger. If they resort to the unprotected water in the swamps many of them could die.<\/i><\/p>\n

We need to raise $2700 to replace the well. I am writing to appeal for your assistance and the help of all the good people and donors of Children\u2019s Hunger Relief Fund\u201d<\/i><\/i><\/p>\n

\"A<\/a>

Please help us in responding to the great needs of the orphans that depend on Children\u2019s Hunger Relief Fund for clean water. We thank you so much for all of your generous support in the past and look forward to continuing our work together of bringing hope to the hopeless<\/b>.<\/p>\n

\"Please<\/a>
Please join us in helping these two beautiful children that live at our orphanage in Uganda. With YOUR help we can help bring life through clean water for these children and many more like them.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Please mark your donation specifically for Uganda-Water-well and we will move as quickly as possible to build the well. Again, from all of us at CHRF, thank you for all of your generosity, thank you for caring about the needs of children who would otherwise have been forgotten, thank you for creating a miracle in the lives of these beautiful and precious children!<\/p>\n

Colonel V. Doner<\/p>\n

P.S.<\/p>\n

Please remember that after we raise the funds of $2,700 this well can provide clean water for these children, the staff and the whole community for up to ten years. That works out to less then a penny for a clean cup of water over time! This is a great investment for the future and a nurturing investment for these children, God\u2019s Children.<\/p>\n

\"This<\/a>
This beautiful image captures the children smiling and celebrating when we built there last well which has now broken. Please partner with your donation to help us rebuild a new one for them and create yet another miracle together!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
