Help Provide Meals to Hungry Abayudaya Students
Many of you had the chance to meet Aaron Kintu Moses when he toured the US this fall, and hear first-hand about the remarkable journey of this Jewish community located in the heart of Africa. Aaron, headmaster of one of the two Abayudaya schools in Uganda, shared the challenges the community faces in educating students who do not have enough food to eat, and the difficulty of providing meals in an impoverished area of a country with an inflated and unstable economy.
Thanks to the powerful network of Kulanu supporters and activists who sustain the Kulanu-Abayudaya Nutrition Program, child hunger is being alleviated each day through the provision of breakfast and lunch to the 766 Jewish, Christian and Muslim students enrolled at the two Abayudaya schools. Contribute to this important work through Kulanu's online Abayudaya School Nutrition Fundraising Page!
Another way to help is by sharing the following message on your Twitter, Facebook, or LinkedIn page -
