Susan and Tom Bosold, Father Sebastian and Father Vincent strive
each and every day to improve the lives of those in Uganda. "They are our boots on the ground."
We support the most in need.
We would be honored to have you join us in this effort; together we'll serve those most "at risk".
Ugandans live on less than a dollar every day, meaning no food, money for education,
or adequate shelter. No public services, at all, that we take for granted,
are provided to those in the 13 remote, impoverished villages.
Tom and Susan began their journey in Africa by visiting Kenya on safari. During these experiences they came across the first boarding schools they'd seen in Africa, typically led by a Catholic, Protestant, or other religious leader -- all following a credentialed, British based educational system.
In 2018 Tom and Susan attended the Papal Audience at St. Peter's Basilica in Rome, Italy. It was here that they met Father Vincent DePaul, impressed by his devotion to the thirteen village churches he served in Uganda.
Today, Tom and Susan Bosold now support over 120 Ugandan children & youth, from five years old to college age. They attempt to pay tuition fees, keep food banks adequate to prevent starvation, and provide clean water.
Father Vincent met Tom and Susan Bosold on pilgrimage to St. Peter's Basilica in Rome, Italy and the three stayed in touch.
Father Vincent especially supports children and the elderly in the thirteen remote villages.
In the remote villages, poverty is prevalent with only a dirt farm type of subsistence. Father Vincent arranges for or transports those to healthcare for treatment of malaria and other scourges if he has the funds to pay and has been alerted before it is too late.
Father Sebastian grew up in Uganda from a family of seven children. He lost his mother to lymphoma at a young age and strived to follow a faith-filled life similar to hers. He is now at parish in San Diego, California.
Father Sebastian experienced the fractured economy, infrastructure and government firsthand. Ugandans live on less than a dollar every day, meaning no electric power, clothing or soap. The infrastructure continues to collapse which impacts education.
The hope for a place like Uganda is from a variety of religious affiliations and representatives. From schools to health services, various faiths are at the forefront.
