I got out of the PW business a year and a half ago and moved to Uganda with my family. This board was a great source of encouragement and inspiration as I navigated my way through starting and maintaining a profitable business. I also did some freelance work for Cleaner Times with a few articles on some of the roundtables, and even made the cover once :grin: Now, however we are working with 122 children orphaned by war and/or AIDS. Somedays I would gladly trade a day here to be back on a roof when its 110 degrees outside with a face full of bleach, but the need here is so great and we are thankful to be able to serve. Most of the kids at our school are HIV positive living on less than a dollar a day. We provide them with an education, two meals a day but most of all the the love of Christ and try and show them there is someone in this world that loves them as well. There are few men in our village and I am known as Uncle Scott to them and try to be a positive male figure in their lives.
Please look back at my past posts here on the board to see my history. I won't go on like a late night info-mercial showing a bunch of mal-nurished little black kids, but sadly those pics are true. As the year comes to an end please consider making a tax deductible donation to our ministry here. http://www.untilallhaveheard.org. mark it for either Rackley or Suubi family (suubi is word for hope in the local language) we also have a blog http://www.suubifamily.blogspot.com. We are also on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/Rackleys.in.Uganda. Thanks guys.

Scott,
I appreciate your goal, but I am going to ask that you not post with such provocative titles. Google picks all this stuff up and titles such as the title for this thread will affect search rankings and therefore reflect negatively on the board and its members.
If you would like to start a slightly less enticing thread, I welcome you to do that. In the meantime, I will wait for the other admins to chime in to see if we should just edit or remove this thread.
Thank you for your understanding.
And keep up the good work in Uganda.

Scott What your doing is great, I forgot about you being on your mission. Its truly great to hear from you, stay in touch and follow up the post with some stories. Most do not know your entire family is there.

Its a special treat today to see someone doing such a cool thing, makes the small troubles we have here seem easy. Thanks again

If it gets 5 dollars at all for a bunch of starving kids I could care less what it does to the google ranking of this site
