Kayonza 'water walk' and Refugee Camp


In the village of Kayonza this is where so many people walk to get their water to cook, clean and wash with. For some, the hike is over 45mins one way.  A well has been dug within the village, but funds are needed to bring electricity there so that the well can be used!
Refugee camp!  There are over 10,000 children that live there, and as you can see they all love getting their picture taken :)   They have free schooling until grade 6.  After that, most kids never get to go to school again because they have to pay their own way.  There is a large amount of child  prostitution that goes on within the camp.  Many families don`t have enough food and are forced into awful circumstances.
