Another Update on March 13

We are having a great time, and will get to do some good work soon. I have bought 4 sewing machines and all the materials to make 40 hammocks. - Cory

Cory is in Norman's village which has 2000 people. The sewing machines will be the first permanent machines in the village. The school will keep them and let people use them as needed. They might also be used to make school uniforms.

(Norman's village is located to the west of the mountain between the mountain and the red balloon)

We are planning on connecting with Cory on March 20th through webcam at both Forest Hills School and Morna Heights.

At Forest Hills School, we have a beautiful tree located in our front entrance (see right hand side of blog for a picture). Four branches will soon be added to our tree to depict that we have connected with those in Uganda. As the hammocks get made in Uganda, leaves will begin to sprout on the tree. We are also adding the names of those who have made donations to the bottom of our tree. Cory's pictures of Uganda are posted around the tree. Stay tuned for an updated picture of our tree!
