Sanyu Babies Home Sanyu Babies’ Home Quarterly Newsletter – Issue 35– April – June, 2017 IN THIS ISSUE Letter from the Chairman Letter from the Director Hello’s & Goodbye’s The Passing of Cyrus Byakatonda Update on Moses Perimeter wall Adoptions New Cots Trip to Freedom City Children’s park Volunteer Report Interview with the Interns Volunteer Opportunities Sponsor A Child Donations Needed How to Donate Donors this quarter LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN It is difficult to find words that are good enough to convey the inner (real) sentimental feelings and emotions one gets when you come face-to-face with the reality in Sanyu Babies’ Home (SBH). You see so many babies with yearning eyes; with the quest for a belonging; you note the open welcome; the constant child innocence; you feel the uncertainty and craving for answers from many toddler faces. Sometime one can be reduced to tears. In this Newsletter, a lot of the agony and traumatic experiences these abandoned vulnerable babies and children have had to endure by being abandoned/orphaned has been reflected. We continue to thank SBH many supporters, donors, volunteers, friends, guardians, foster and adoptive families who have continuously come out to help. We also thank the Bishop of Namirembe Diocese, The Rt. Rev. Wilberforce Kityo Luwalira and the entire Diocese for their overwhelming support. In a special way, the Board of Governors of SBH have extended their appreciation to the special group of donors listed by the Director. Sanyu Babies’ Home, P.O.

Development is expensive, and we especially need help from “FRIENDS”. So SBH is launching a concerted effort to create “FRIENDS OF SANYU”: both locally, and in the Diaspora. Any help rendered in this direction will be highly appreciated. May GOD bless all of you our readers. Dr. Stephen Kituuka – Board Chairman LETTER FROM THE DIRECTOR To God be the glory for the great things He has done. We for always thank God for inspiring you to put a smile on our, sometimes, unhappy faces. We are particularly encouraged by the support received from the Church Parishes in Namirembe Diocese- Church of Uganda. In a special way, we thank Muriel DeLong and Cheryl Pazia, together with their friends and family in Canada for funding 45 new cots and toddler beds as well as 45 new mattresses for the children. Metro branch Stanbic Bank Uganda Ltd for the new washing machine. Patel Pankaj, Ameet Gheewala, Fayad K. Faya and Tony Bourke for funding the Solar batteries for our Solar system. Thanks to your prayers and support towards the ongoing Perimeter wall construction.

Change means altering the state or quality of something or a situation form what it originally used to be. It is to bring a difference in something, a situation or someone either positively or negatively. Change involves something entering a new phase which may either be positive or negative. Change is a fact of life or a reality that can never be avoided. It is irresistible and therefore one is forced to accept to it. Quite often, any change comes with a new experience. This requires that one must make choice either to accept or reject the change. Positive changes are always accepted and they tend to bring joy to the people.

  • Environmental and Social Impact
    SFG1757 REV ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT FOR KAMPALA INFRASTRUCTURE AND INSTITUTIONAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECT Public Disclosure Authorized PHASE 2 (KIIDP-II) Batch 1ROADS AND JUNCTIONS Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized Prepared By: MBW Consulting Ltd in association with PEC with Public Disclosure Authorized CONSULTING TEAM An interdisciplinary team of consultants under Environmental Assessment Consult (Uganda) Limited (EACL) carried out the assessment i EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Kampala Capital City Authority (KCCA) is mandated to plan, develop and maintain the city infrastructure. Good Infrastructure is fundamental in stimulating economic growth and generally, poverty reduction. For long, the City’s infrastructure has received inadequate attention due to limited funding, which has resulted into its stagnation and dilapidation. However, the population and demand for services has been steadily growing. Overall, Kampala has approximately 1,218 km of roads, of which about 38.4% are paved (bituminized) and 61.6% are unpaved (earth or gravel). A significant portion of the unpaved road network is heavily trafficked with over 500 vehicles per day. With the ever increasing traffic volumes, maintenance of unpaved roads has become very expensive and certainly unsustainable. Almost 80% of the bitumen roads and 99% of the unpaved roads are in a fair-to-poor condition due to a heavy maintenance backlog. Some roads bear potholes, surface irregularities, and cracks, that adversely impact transport system. Localized repairs have become expensive and uneconomical due to frequent break breaking down of repaired road patchworks. This ESIA report has been prepared in accordance with the guidelines for Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) in Uganda. The guidelines require that any developer seeking to carry out a development of the nature and category described under Schedule 3 of The National Environment Act, Cap 153 carries out an Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA).
