I can call it a day of production
Patrick Lutalo • January 4, 2020

After a prolonged period of precipitation, we have started getting a little bit of sigh relief and today the apprentices were able to commence with the layout of their project. Despite being muddy, we will be digging the foundation trenches tomorrow , and start on the foundation walls on Monday. We anticipate to have the groundbreaking ceremony on Thursday the 2nd, 2020, with a prayer service by Rev. Samuel Ssebaale the youth spiritual mentor, and we expect community participation as it is a day for antenatal care for expecting mothers. We are looking forward to that as the youth will be sharing with the community, the love of Christ. Please continue to pray for us.
Sincerely,
Patrick Lutalo

We are deeply honored to receive this special community award and grateful to everyone who has supported the mission of Teach Men to Fish. This recognition is not simply a celebration of one individual, but of the apprentices, volunteers, families, mentors, donors, and community partners who have made this work possible. As Patrick Lutalo shares in his appreciation report, every milestone has been achieved through the dedication of countless people working toward a common purpose. What began as a construction skills training program has grown into something far greater. Apprentices are not only learning valuable trades that provide sustainable careers, but they are also using those skills to transform their own communities. From building a much-needed maternity facility in rural Uganda to constructing a new Community Healthcare Center that will eventually serve more than 500,000 people, these projects demonstrate the lasting impact of investing in people and practical education. Although time during the award ceremony will not allow Patrick to share the full story, we invite you to read his complete appreciation report below. It highlights the journey behind Teach Men to Fish, the remarkable accomplishments of its apprentices, and the vision for creating stronger, healthier communities through education, opportunity, and service. Thank you for being part of this journey. Your encouragement and support continue to empower lives and inspire hope for generations to come.
