Income-generating project helps relieve poverty
Last night I sent more than 1 million Ugandan shillings to Naume Sabano, chair of the Abayudaya Women's Association, for paperbead jewelry made by her members. The jewelry was sold in Portland, OR, where I visited the P'nai Or Jewish Renewal community last weekend to lead an Abayudaya Shabbaton. The money is only $430 but it means a lot to subsistence farmers who rarely have any cash income.
This morning I woke up to this text message from Naume: "Dear Lorne, what exciting news. I wish you could see my smile but all I could say is thank you so much. May God reward your efforts."
