Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify your father who is in heaven. (Matt 5:16 KJV)

Pilgrim's approach to helping children is to provide them with skills and an education. Beginning in June 2006, Pilgrim will provide boarding and a secondary education to 250 needy teens from IDP camps in the north and east of the country.

Typical Ugandan schools are overcrowded and lack most of the basics that we take for granted. Few have electricity and proper sanitary facilities. Below are pictures of typical primary and secondary schools in Uganda.

Please extend your hand in friendship and help make a difference in the lives of these precious children.
