This year we would love to buy new mattresses for the children in the rehabilitation center. At least 100 pieces at €20 per mattress (transport included).
Also our 10th edition of the Saint Nicolas action is ready to start. €1 for 1 pencil, 1 orange and 1 small package of biscuits. Thanks in advance, Nathalie and all of our Foodstep Uganda kids.
Today we've finished a whole week with Vélo Afrique. Taking care of their catering. Cooking on charcoal stoves, fetching water out of the Nile. Sleeping on mats, driving for hours with a truck, washing clothes by hand …. But what an amazing experience!
I was there with the kids of Foodstep and some of my staff. They were top! Thank you Vélo Afrique for supporting Foodstep Uganda. X Nathalie

Proud of my son. Before and 4 weeks later. Looking forward to the opening of club DNA.
Since the time we where in Europe, it looks like the gouvernement changed the taxes on phone. Thats why I couldn t tell you we are safely back at Home in Uganda. We enjoyed our 10 years of Foodstep with family, best friends, sponsors, volunteers,....We want to thank everybody who gave us an amazing time in Belgium and in the Netherlands.
We came back with new ideas, plans, visit already the womans prison (where we met a lot of the mothers of our kids!?!?) We start building on our real restaurant , want to drill our own water . The girls wing in the reabilitation center wil be finished soon, we hope. Our kids start their exames and go for their last school term. Staf is ok, kids ok , mama papa ok.....God is in control!
Werners eye is in much worse condition than we thought. He has eye-fluid before and behind his lens. It would be a very delicate operation and only 3 surgeons are capable of doing this. The cataract wil stay and his vision wouldn't improve much. Better not to touch. What he needs are good glasses.
Even the surgeon would never execute the operation for himself for the result is to little and the chance on becoming blind to big. So please pray for Werner. Xn
