Intro.

Thank you for visiting my Uganda Trip Blog!
I travelled to Uganda, Africa from Feb. 18-27 with my friend Lisa Erickson and a medical team from Janesville, WI, to support the work of Hope Institute of Uganda.
Lisa and I brought spiritual encouragement and support in the form of teaching and prayer at the Jinja Light and Life Church, while the medical team performed surgeries at Buluba hospital.
Thanks again for your support, and may God bless you as you partner with us to bring hope to widows, orphans, and our Christian brothers and sisters in Uganda.

About Roots-n-Streams


A brief introduction to Roots and Streams:

Roots-n-Streams was started in September 2010 by Kim Brannon, a teacher from Greenville, IL.
We network and partner with existing non-profit organizations to promote poverty reduction programs.

Through networking, promotion, and sales we help provide ‘stability and life’ (Roots and Streams) to some of the world’s poorest people.

1)      We promote the cause of widows and orphans by providing opportunities for widow and child sponsorship.
2)      We offer presentations to schools, churches, and civic organizations to create awareness and enlist involvement.
3)      We support the establishment and growth of micro-enterprise endeavors through networking and fair trade handicraft sales.
4)      We network only with organizations who share a common mission with us and  have validated
connections with the artisans to insure life-giving fair trade.

.  Products we sell include: recycled paper jewelry and purses from Uganda, bone jewelry from Kenya, freshwater pearl jewelry and silk brocade handbags from South China, scarves, inspirational notecards, cowhorn crafts, baskets, and more…
