Rise On Wings hasn't added a story.
So, upon return to Canada, Rise On Wings was formed and we are now operating with the support of boards of directors in both Uganda and Canada. Rise on Wings purpose is to empower and bring hope to single mothers in Uganda through the development of self-sustaining businesses. The income and new skills acquired through these projects will develop passion and excitement, moving the women and their families towards financial independence.
Our plan for doing this is to raise funds for start-up costs for a few large "model" projects where the women will come to gain all the training and skills for business marketing and management, all while earning income to support their children. After a year they are encouraged to develop their own business with the assistance of a small business loan and support of a business mentor.
For our model projects we have plans for a clothing store, a restaurant, a retreat center, a model farm for learning agriculture, and numerous other future plans. Rise On Wings purchased land in late 2012 in Uganda. As this campaign begins, we are having a legal land survey completed so that work and building can begin on it.
Our first project of a clothing store is set to open in early 2014 and our fundraising campaign will enable to first shipments of clothing, purses & shoes as well as pay for the first 6 months rent for space.
Thank-you for supporting these projects that work to support families staying together and minimizing orphans in Uganda.
