Visit by Bernard Suwa, Executive Director of ACROSS

We were delighted to have Bernard Suwa visited us this week. ORAF has been working with ACROSS for the last few years and it was good to hear of the progress being achieved in Southern Sudan.

Across is an interdenominational, international Christian organisation focused on Sudan with an emphasis on training. It was founded in 1972 and today it operates in partnership with Sudanese Evangelical churches. The head office is located in Nairobi, Kenya and a liaison office in Juba, Southern Sudan. Its focus is Christian transformational development, mainly through training projects.

Uganda: Kyabyoma Community-Based Skills Training Project

This project is a part of a wider effort to improve the physical, socio-economic and spiritual welfare of a community in Kamwenge District, Uganda. The overriding aim of the program is to increase household income through the provision of training in skills which can be used within the community to generate income and improve the overall standards of living.

ORAF is pleased to partner with the local NGO, Toro Intergrated Childcare, for this three year project.
