This is a picture of Monica's house. Monica is HIV positive as is her daughter Stella. Stella was born with the disease and is a member of the 52 Kids Foundation. Stella's father died of Aids several years ago and left the family this half completed building. The Foundation, Monica and her family (along with 4 other sisters) partnered to secure an affordable lease that would allow us to use this as a dorm and for her family to have a steady source of income. 52 Kids Foundation signed a 20-year lease giving Monica an income of $950/year, half the market rate (thank you Monica).

Dorm construction underway
John, 52 Kid's Foundation program director, left for Uganda and is staying in Kamuli for approximately one month to oversee the construction of the dorm, and participate in meetings to gather ideas and generate consensus about how to best use this new space. He recently sent a brief e-mail home and reported that the trip has been very productive.
