These are People I Love: Uganda

Have you met my friends, Jeremy & Tamara Boone?

Jeremy and Tamara Boone, with Equip International, working for the transformation of Masese Slum in Uganda.

Masese Slum, near the source of the Nile, became a refugee camp for the Karimojong Tribe during times of war and famine in the inhospitable northern region of Uganda. The Karimojong are despised and treated as less than human by their countrymen.

Today, Masese is an overlooked slum of 4,000 men, women and children. The issues of poor sanitation, hygiene, communicable and tropical disease, hunger as well as economic and moral poverty have unnecessarily crippled this community.  

We believe God wants to transform it from the inside-out, and we're working toward that end for His glory.
