Empowerment
“I went to camp with friends and returned with family.”
Many of our high school students have never traveled beyond their villages and many never know complete acceptance for who they are. Camp AllStars provides students with an experience like no other.
Camp tackles issues like finding their purpose, self-confidence, self-worth and building strong relationships. It is a week of good food, games, hiking, swimming and learning to use their head, heart, hands and habits to lead like Jesus.
Your tax deductible gift of $150 can provide a student a one week camp experience.

- Breakfast, lunch and snacks
- Games and other activities

For Ugandan children, the true joy of Christmas doesn’t come from any store.
The true joy comes from family gatherings, going to church in your Sunday best and eating all you want from a once a year menu of chicken, rice, soda and cake.
But for many of our children living in poverty, Christmas is the same as any other day. Parents find it difficult to provide even the most basic foods.
Each year, Children of Grace holds a Christmas celebration for all our children. They come in their best, or maybe their mother’s best, hear and participate in the Christmas story, play games, meet Santa and eat to their heart’s content.
Your donation of any amount can provide a Christmas experience for all our children and in many cases their siblings too. They all come and Christmas is a “whole lot more.”
