Underwriting a reporter would be a separate project, wouldn't it? Maybe we can talk about it on the conference call, or maybe we need more info before we even discuss it.

If we can get 3000 per year to cover part of her salary it would be a great thing to do. Rana wrote:

I reiterated the use of the money for the girls and women as well. I heard back from Sister Stella immediately following my e-mail to her regarding the check being sent. She was very, very appreciative. The timing appears to be perfect for her and SITEAW. She also stated that she would be glad for us to share portions of the e-mail she sent describing the violence in Uganda in the October Global E-Links as well as at the Progressive Brethren Summit next month. I wrote the article for Global E-Links tonight and have sent it to Anna Lisa to put on the website. Thanks, Nan. I reiterated the use of the money for the girls and women as well.

Their growing season is going well, enough rain. She did a letter for the PBS in a separate email. Do you want it on this spot or on the regular website? I'm not positive I know how to upload it. Sorry to be such a ditz with this stuff. Nan Hi,

SITEAW, INC., (Shifting Ideas Through Education for African Women) is marching forward with a couple projects at the same time. 1. Supporting girls so that they may stay in school and not be circumcised and given away in marriage when they are still children. 2. Helping women to acquire some skills and have a second chance in life. Right now we have: Sawing, Basketry, Brick Laying and Computer Literacy projects going. Anne and Kelly Campbell of the Village Experience in Indianapolis are helping us to sell the baskets for SITEAW women. When the women earn some money they are able to support their children in school and to buy some essentials of life. 3. We have joined hands with Fr. Ponce Kaweesa of ELITE-K Primary School and Clinic. SITEAW orphans now go to school at ELIT-K Primary school. The names of both organizations will remain as they are but we will be giving each other a hand in order to pull together for the good of those in need of our help. Volunteers to teach for two weeks, a month or even the whole summer are welcome. We thank you Global Women of the Church of the Brethren for your great support. Be happy always. Sr. Stella.
