Meet the Kitgum village: a small town of about 10,000 people. The actual group location is on the outskirts of town where there is no electricity. This beader group has chosen to call itself “Rwot-tek” meaning God is great. The Kitgum group began in December 2006 and now has 40 members. For Rwot-tek members, life is a daily struggle. The women struggle to provide daily food for themselves and their families. Most of the women are renting huts for $6 to $20 per month depending on the number of huts they are renting. However, because they are renting, there is little land nearby on which they can grow food. If they try to rent land farther away, then their crops may be stolen before they can be harvested. This is where our program comes in... http://ow.ly/7EtL30gSwTv

Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone in Texas, especially is the Houston area. Our own employee, Jennifer Quackenbush-Dent , who lives in Clear Lake City, has received 40+ inches of rain from Hurricane Harvey and they are expected to get more in the next two days.
We have been in contact with her and her family, and know that she is safe. They still has power and water and their house has not flooded, but they are still expecting it will. Please keep Jennifer, her family and all those affected by Hurricane Harvey in your thoughts and prayers!
