KATITO
House of Hope
House of Hope Katito reports that they gave out the goats provided by U4A and also still working ways to get the cow as the rains have been scanty. The border clashes that took place in April/May also disrupted the school since many day schooling children didn’t attend classes.

They still support 138 orphans, 22 being at the orphanage and some in the villages. There have been incidences of other children looking for help from the centre’s gate, some being genuine while others just come.
