8 Boys Graduate from SGU


We are so proud of our new graduates. They have worked hard and have accomplish so much. All of the young men will soon be going back to their villages with a new life ahead of them.  While at Uncle Fred's House, these boys have learned they are valued and loved by God and others.  They have learned to forgive those that have caused them pain. They have learned the importance of  honesty and trustworthiness, being responsible for themselves and others in their care. The boys also learned how to grow and harvest crops which is a necessity for survival.


All the graduates have also finished their vocational training in the field they chose and will be receiving new tools from SGU to start their businesses. 

Uncle Fred worked hard with the local community in obtaining the land that the boys lawfully owned when parents died.  Our many thanks to Fred, Quinto, Pamelle and the community for helping these boys towards a future.

Peter and Maxwell has been asked to stay on with SGU as junior staff members.  They will go on to be trained in areas of nurturing and counseling for the younger children in the Uncle Fred's House program. Congratulations
