Uganda

After 40 years of civil war, AIDS and extreme poverty, Uganda's children have become victims on many levels. Prayer Palace leader Bishop Musisi sought to provide Christian based education for these many disadvantaged children and birthed the Nakyessa School in the rural setting of Nakyessa, just 90 km north of Kampala, beginning with the first class under a tree.

In 2003, High Adventure's Don and Marty McLaughlin visited Uganda to dedicate the new Dunamis 103.0 FM radio station they had partnered to build with Prayer Palace and Bishop Grivas Musisi. During this time, a site visit to Bishop Musisi's Nakyessa School/orphanage moved Don and Marty to wait on the Lord for help.

High Adventure has partnered with Kampala based Prayer Palace Center and leader Bishop Grivas Musisi to educate 600 children at the Nakyessa School and Orphanage, initiating various projects that include water, medical clinic, milk goats, harvest goats, a primary library, the beginnings of a Vocational school and an A-Level school.

High Adventure also seeks to bless local widows in Jesus' name by providing gardens and/or solar powered lighting when needs arise and funds permit.

Nakyessa School and orphanage is a strategic mid-north Christian education outreach set in Uganda's most arid region. Dry seasons can last as long as 4 months, sometimes causing drought related animal deaths, greatly impacting this already poor area.

High Adventure's partners support a unique educational outreach in Nakyessa's village area located 90 km north of Kampala. Many projects have been initiated, including water supply, food supply, medical support and literacy. But one of the primary school's most pressing needs is for a safe cooking facility and equipment.

After a visit by Canadian and American medical practitioners, it was discovered that the majority of the Nakyessa School's 700 children were malnourished due to poverty related imbalanced diet. There was a noticeable lack of calcium leading to brittle bones. A commitment to providing a milk supply was undertaken by High Adventure.

The high demand for medical and personnel support for Nakyessa's Milk Goat Project required funding not available, so a new micro business was initiated.

Select goats are consumed by rural Ugandans and supply for such meat is always in demand. After a careful research of the Milk Goat Project current and future needs, it was determined that a herd of 100 harvest goats could reproduce twice per year (averaged) and the sale of such new goats could fully sustain the vital Milk Goat Project and the harvest goats simultaneously.

High Adventure's partners have provided a medical clinic for Nakyessa School and Orphanage (700 students) and the 14,000 villagers living in and around the area.

The clinic's sole health care worker administers care and medicines to 50 people per day and to provide this care on a sustainable basis, medicines are provided on a cost recovery basis.
