Vicki and I made a video this week about the issues that Uganda is facing. We talk about the how many in the west try to solve the issue by sending aid to Africa. I talk about why aid doesn’t help, but instead creates a cycle of hopelessness and helplessness in addition to a dependency syndrome. I then talk about what has been working in Uganda and how discipleship and vocational training is the key to equipping and empowering Ugandan men. I also talk about a program called Farming God’s Way that has had great success in Uganda. Vicki talks about our experiences with a demonstration plot in a nearby village. I conclude with Heart for Uganda’s plan to purchase some land and how you can help.

The video is a bit long (~17 minutes), but please take the time to watch the video to learn more about Heart for Uganda and how you can help solve the issues that they face in culturally relevant and sustainable ways.
