Amazima is an organisation
started by Katie Davis. This organisation connects some of Katie’s friends with
children in Uganda by letting these children stay with their families by sponsoring
them, have their basic needs met and receive an education which the children
want and need so much. When Katie first started this organisation her aim was
to sponsor 10 children, that number grew to 40 then to 150 and now today they are
sponsoring 700 children throughout the Amazima Ministries. People sponsor $300
a year or $25 a month.
