sends us some pictures of the birth of a special HOME:
HAYDN HOME: A HOME FOR JOY AND BRIGHT HEARTS
Dear Burt,
As I had informed you, the materials for the home are in the process of being brought to the location where its going to be. I managed to get some pictures of the bricks of those that are already in the place and those that were being brought. I actually stayed over the weekend because work of bringing the bricks to the site was going on and so I decided to stay and assist mam. What we cant do now is bringing sand because it might be carried away by the rain. So once the rain reduces we will also be able to bring the sand and the concrete stones and other necessary building materials.
That Old house you see in the pictures is the house we are going to renovate for Joy for Humanity offices and so we want our home to be near our offices. So we have been using the school office for our Joy for Humanity offices and it has also been small but now we have that house that we are going to renovate to be our offices. I am trying to raise funds so that I will be able to renovate the house as our lovely home for the children is being finished. Once I get the funds, the old house will also look so nice and hence we will have a proper office for Joy for Humanity. So thats why the bricks are near that house because we want hour first home to be near our offices. That first home means alot and we need it near.
In the photo you will be seeing my mam and also some other person. He is called Lubega and he is assisting in the day to day work that takes place there.So we need him becuase he helps us in some manual work and he is very important as we get the home underway. So he will help us alot as the home is being built and also to assist monitor the home during the day and also at night. We built for him a small house near that place and so we need him to be there all the time.
Ending here for now. All the best in what you do.

"Change"
The Waterfall represents change, the changing of the world. Each individual sprinkle of water (youth), from different cultures, different backgrounds, is flowing in the same direction. As corny as it might sound, a waterfall is a good way of representing changing the world. The sprinkles of water, each trying to change the world, flowing, giving an effort to make a difference in their world. We CAN make a difference.

"Smokin' Lorry"
This is an original image/painting. I saw the smoking lorry somewhere in Eastern Kenya. I did the painting by computer graphics. The painting is of a lorry emitting lots of smoke into the air on a road in Kenya. I wanted to create awareness of the impact air pollution has on our environment and on our health thereby preventing us from achieving or reaching our maximum capabilities. Air pollution is a bigger issue than what people are made to believe, in the context that it affects our health, which is a major impediment to personal growth and development. Drastic measures should be taken to ensure that this issue is taken into consideration and handled with the urgency that it demands. This painting depicts a root cause of this problem. Best regards, |
