The Magnificat: Mary's Song of Nonviolence

Giving Tuesday for Defeating AIDS in Uganda

After Black Friday and Cyber Monday , its Giving Tuesday in the charity world of non-profits seeking donations for their community projects in this season of sharing.  December 1 is also World AIDS Day .  Since 2007, WorldHope Corps has cared for AIDS orphans in Malawi and sponsored HIV/AIDS care-giving and prevention training in churches for thousands of pastors, lay leaders, and youth leaders. For four years we have sponsored a  Uganda Youth Empower Project  known as  Games for the Goal! Defeating HIV/AIDS in Uganda through  Soccer, Testing and Education for Youth   Last year, over 4,000 youth attended our annual soccer camp where they heard inspirational speakers, played in a soccer tournament, and received AIDS testing, counseling and education, and competed for the prize: "Baamu's Goat."  This year's event is set for  January 2-6, 2016, and we hope to attract over 5,000 youth to the Games. We will need your help again to make it all happen.
