| Acholi Jewelry - made by refugees in IDP Camps and 100% goes back for TH projects in UNHCR Camps
Each $10 African handmade jewelry piece that you purchase from TH will be used to donate a birthing kit or a mosquito net. We will be purchasing birthing kits and bed nets in Uganda and hand deliver them in July. These project has been very successful! Think Humanity received another grant from BKFA so sales from jewelry will go towards Meds and Nets (Medication and Bed Nets)
The Birthing Kits are basic with six items: A plastic sheet Soap 2 gloves Sterile scalpel blade 3 cords 5 gauze squares
"Every minute, a woman dies of complications related to pregnancy and childbirth" With an estimated 525,000 women dying annually in childbirth, many from infections acquired during childbirth, there is a great need for clean birthing kits. The women we assist for reasons of isolation and poverty have little or no assistance during childbirth. Many mothers and babies die from preventable infections. By providing a clean birthing kit and training in how to use it, these mothers will have the resources to reduce infection. Please specify which project you wish to donate to.
Think Humanity has partnered with a group of women from Uganda that live in the Acholi Quarter Camp for Internally Displaced Persons. Parents of night commuter children in Gulu, known in the USA as the Invisible Children," are making beads to help earn family income and sustain a community financed food-aid program for their children. We purchase the jewelry from them and they benefit, but then we sell in the USA at a reasonable profit. 100% of the money then goes back to help with Think Humanity projects. It will then benefit those refugees displaced from war-affected countries living in Uganda in refugee settlement camps. We are helping to build a small economy in Uganda, but at the same time help our own self-sustainable projects in refugee camps.

Provide a child with education and hope If you would like to help provide a refugee child/orphan with an education please visit the photo gallery for sponsoring children in 2010. If you sponsored in 2009 and would like to re-sponsor your child, please contact us at Think Humanity. If you sponsor one of these children you will receive a thank you card with their photo and a short story. When TH visits the school, we will get a drawing from the child and bring it back for you. We realize this is limited communication, but we do the best to provide the sponsor with as much information as possible. The main purpose is that you will help a child get a quality education, two good meals a day, healthcare, love and care. Many of the orphans live at the school with the teachers.

ONE IN EIGHT PEOPLE ON THE PLANET DON'T HAVE Unsafe water and lack of basic sanitation cause 80% of all sickness and disease, and kill more people every year than all forms of violence, including war. Many people in the developing world, usually women and children, walk more than three hours every day to fetch water that is likely to make them sick. Those hours are crucial, preventing many from working or attending school. Additionally, collecting water puts them at greater risk of sexual harassment and assault. Children are especially vulnerable to the consequences of unsafe water. Of the 42,000 deaths that occur every week from unsafe water and a lack of basic sanitation, 90% are children under 5 years old. (charitywater.org) WHAT WE ARE DOING ABOUT IT 50% of the profits from our clean water t-shirts are used to buy Bio Sand Water Filters in Uganda through Think Humanity (thinkhumanity.org). Made of concrete, Bio Sand Water Filters are virtually indestructible, easy to use and maintain, and are made entirely from local materials so that filters can be manufactured, distributed, and utilized by local entrepreneurs. A single filter can produce 75 liters per day, or enough clean water for four families. Each $85 donation will provide one filter. WHAT YOU CAN DO $1 will provide someone with access to clean water for 1 year. Save the money you would normally use to buy bottled water and donate it to clean water projects. Send in your donations to Think Humanity and save lives. Front says, Maji Ni Uzima (Water is Life in Swahili) Back says.... Over 6,000 people die every day from drinking unsafe water. The purchase of this shirt will provide someone with clean water for 5 years. WeAreOverlooked.com ThinkHumanity.org Thank you for your support for this project. If you cannot purchase a shirt, consider a donation to Think Humanity by going to our donate page. Proceeds go to Think Humanity "...hit from behind..." by Jim Heckel

Afya Rachel is an orphan having no father and mother. She comes to the hostel late after one month due to lack of what to use and some contribution. The caregiver died three week ago and now she has no hope again of continuing with her education. When I talked to her she told me that she has spent two months without soap. She may not make it to end of term exams due to the credit at school of which she has not yet paid. She needs items such as reams of papers, a uniform and books. To get them is a big problem. I tried my best to comfort her after shedding tears and even left for sleeping due to stresses. The only thing I told her was, Life will be okay, hope is the best. People in the world can care, but if they don't, then God can't fail. Amani Jean Paul Think Humanity t-shirts Think Humanity t-shirts only $10 each Sizes small, medium, large and x-large.
