I met a Lost Boy named Moses when he first came to Nashville TN in the fall of 2001. He had his first Thanksgiving dinner in our home. I thought I had a lot to teach him, but he had so much more to teach me.
I had not spoken with Moses in a few months when I got the news that he had been robbed and murdered here in Nashville. I want to raise money for these wonderful people in the memory and honor of Moses.

The Duk Lost Boys Clinic

Goal: $431,800 – 1st Year Medical Costs
While peace has arrived in southern Sudan, the collapse of the social infrastructure during the long civil war has left most of the region with virtually no health services.
John Dau, the Director of the Direct Change Sudan Project, is from Duk County and started this project with the American Care for Sudan Foundation.
Currently, there is no medical doctor for 75 miles. The clinic whose staff will include a full time doctor, will serve the people of Duk County and the surrounding areas.
While over $220,000 has already been raised to build this seven room-clinic, the lack of accessible roads and getting equipment to this remote area requires additional funds to complete the project.

The Sudan Project

While relative peace has come to the southern Sudan, decades of civil war has left the region without the basic infrastructure for programs such as education and healthcare.
As the feature film “God Grew Tired of Us” has raised awareness of the issues of southern Sudan and of the plight of the “Lost Boys of Sudan,” John Dau (one of “Lost Boys” featured in the film) created this project to both educate the public on how they can have an impact AND to provide direct financial assistance to improve the delivery of healthcare and education in the southern Sudan as well as provide education to the Lost Boys in Africa.

TunaHAKI Centre for Child Development Family Reunification and Health Programs

$745 = Reunifies child living in orphanage with extended family and provides support (including school fees) for one year.
$320 = One year of an orphaned child’s medical costs
With over 1 million orphans in Tanzania, many extended families are unable to afford to absorb the grandchildren or nieces and nephews that are left without a home. With limited space in orphanages, these children are often left to fend for themselves.
This project is funding the work of the TunaHAKI Centre for Child Development in Moshi, Kilimanjaro region, Tanzania. TunaHAKI Centre has identifies families that if provided with financial support and the direct payment of school fees could raise an orphan that is part of their extended family.
