Residents of Ntoroko district in Western Uganda were attacked by ADF (Allied Democratic Force) rebels from Congo with people brutally killed and maimed during the week of 12 December. This forced hundreds of women, children, and men to flee for their lives into hiding and long distances seeking secure locations but without food and water. 

Many local community leaders have reached out for help for funds and food to Gerald Nasasira*, Executive Director, Ruralcare Empowerment International Uganda. Mr. Nasasira and his leadership team are working with Pathways To Peace on a Peace Education program that will be extended to 40 communities in his Western Uganda region.

Pathways To Peace and Mr. Nasasira are teaming up to raise $3,000.00 for food and water and $800.00 for travel to help bring calm and nourishment in this time of crisis. We need your help to do this as quickly as possible. 100% of donated funds will go directly to Ruralcare Empowerment International Uganda for this crisis.
