I suffer from essential tremor and this is amazing. Eating with a spoon is a act of patience. People don't seem to understand why food ends up on the floor so much. It would be nice to not have to explain to someone that I'm not nervous, I'm fine, it's normal for me. I wish I could afford it and can't wait to see what other things this is applied to! (Pens and pencils?)

I am am international studies major and would like to use my skills to work for an organization like yours. How does one go about getting a job with an aid organization?

No real questions, just wanted to thank you for what you do!

My parents are returning today from a village outside of Luwero called Kankoole. It was a life changing trip for them and I hope to go with them next time!!

I'm an international studies major with an interest specifically in the middle East and also Uganda. My parents have both been to Kampala numerous times to a village outside the city. I wanted very badly to go this summer but I will likely be going summer of 2015 due to finances. Theres a little girl there named Florence who my mom connected with that I want very badly to meet. She calls me her sister and my mom "muzungu mommy" in an affectionate way.

I just wanted to say thank you for what you do. My mom purchases jewelery, bowls, figurines, etc from the village ladies for much more than they'd normally get and sells some of it here to fund her trips back to Africa. It makes a world of difference to those women, truly. I hope to someday make the trip.
