My Nonprofit Reviews

Sylvia's Children is an act of pure love. With donations and assistance tirelessly recruited from generous donors, Sylvia has caused a community of orphans and teachers to thrive - bringing fresh water, improved nutrition, buildings for classes and teacher's housing, a clinic with solar panels and medical supplies, sources of farming income, and more. This has blossomed into a truly remarkable school, nurturing future leaders and a secure home for orphans. It is also a model for what can occur with devotion and committed love.

Sylvia's heart is as big as this world. When children at the Mbirizzi Elementary School and Orphanage in Uganda asked Sylvia to be their grandmother, she embraced that role with whole-hearted love and determination. She has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars and recruited dozens of dedicated volunteers, and gotten the children clean water, healthy food, and resources to teach and heal. She has built dozens of buildings to house children and staff, and a state-of-the-art medical clinic. As a church pastor, I see her as a stellar example of what one person with a vision can do to transform this world into oases of compassion.
