Large Tent

A success story. Your donations enabled long-term support of SOWERS training in Uganda.

Our Ugandan staff gave careful consideration and diligently researched their Income Generating Project options. I was impressed with the thoroughness of the proposal. Over time, they would like to be able to hire out tents and chairs of several different sizes to groups and organizations requiring them for functions. The income generated will give SOWERS Uganda much needed funds to put towards their ministry. In the first stage we are aiming to fund 3 sets of tent plus 100 chairs. Each set costs USD2185.

The first set is paid for! Could you help towards the next?

What happened?

Another success story!.In the short time that the Uganda Tent Project has been operating, it has grown significantly.  The hiring of tents in Uganda is seasonal with the period September to February being the time when tents are most needed.  The picture left shows another tent being used at a wedding.  SOWERS Uganda only supplies tents with chairs not tables.

Updates from Uganda:

Nov 2019: "The project has been so successful. It has supported the ministry to meet some small needs in the field. Our office has also benefited to meet some office requirements. Like buying ream of papers, ink and other small needs.  Apart from supporting the program in the field, the community has also benefited.  Hiring of tents its now easier and they request if possible we make up four tents. We observed that, if the chance is given to add more tents, there are chances of getting more money that can help to reduce on finance burden. We are trying to combine our effort as a team to see that another tent is added." Ronald

May 2019: "Our tent project has so far generated funds sufficient for buying a 50 seat tent. Being compelled by the high demand for more tents, we are thinking of buying it this month".
