Did you know?

The mission statement of A Perfect Injustice is to show and teach marginalized people the love and hope of Christ - and they do just that! 

Showing the love and hope of Christ means different things for different people, and what I love about A Perfect Injustice is they will do whatever it takes to show that love and hope! 

Did you know there are over 10,000 street children in the city of Kampala? It is mind boggling! When API comes in contact with these children the first step they take is to attempt to resettle them with their family. If this is not a option, they seeks means to place them in a home. 

Many people ask why API always helps street boys and not girls. The reason is, there are rarely any girls. But in this blog I want you to meet Tedy. 

Tedy is a beautiful 12 year old girl from Kikubampagi village. She loves the color green because it shines and the color looks nice when painted on anything. Her favorite food is banana and rice because they are delicious and give her energy. In school, she enjoys studying mathematics. Her favorite hobbies are listening to gospel music and playing netball. Her best friend is Dorothy because she loves the most of all her friends and is peaceful and caring. 

Tedy, a normal girl, lives a very not-normal life according to American standards. She is part of a extremely poor family who lives in a grass-thatched house. Her mother, who is a widow, loves Tedy but has a very limited source of income and is unable to provide for her.

A Perfect Injustice has helped Tedy resettle with her mother and is ready to help this family have the means to stay together, allowing for Tedy to go to school, have clothes, food, shelter  and love. They are ready to show this family the love and hope of Christ - but need your help! 

Tedy is in need of a sponsor. There is the option of $50 or $100 a month. Will you pray about providing for her? 

If you are not able to monetary provide; pray for Tedy. She specifically ask that people pray for God to help her attain her goal of becoming a qualified teacher. When she grows up she wants to be a teacher in order to help lower the illiteracy levels in Uganda. 

If you are interested, email aperfectinjustice4@gmail.com to receive specific information on what your monthly donation will provide for Tedy and her family! 

Learn to do right; seek justice.
Defend the oppressed.
Take up the cause of the fatherless;
plead the case of the widow.
-Isaiah 1:17
