Uganda Well Project:
Rejoice! FCC and the community has raised over $10,200 to dig our first deep water well in Uganda. Hope 4 Kids International has identified a village where our well will be drilled. It is a home to about 10,000 people, including 6,000 children. This new source of water will allow the villagers to avoid many dirty water diseases and enjoy a better quality of life. The well should be operational in just two months. Our church and the Imperial Valley are making a difference in the lives of thousands of people in Uganda.
