In the News ... "Family now sponsoring 15 Ugandan children through local ministry"

MIDLAND, TEXAS - The children and families make the items out of what they have. They use coconuts and cow bones to create dangly bracelets and earrings and necklaces. They take paper from magazines and roll it into beads, shellac them with a clear varnish to give a polished look and then string them together. They carve spoons and forks out of teakwood and fasten decorations on sandals.

On Saturdays, Sarah Mugoya, who started Africa Bridges of Hope in 2006, brings the items to the Downtown Farmers Market and displays the goods on tables. All proceeds from the sales go to help the children in Uganda whom Mugoya has fallen in love with.
