SEASON'S GREETINGS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR, 2010

Dear Friends

As we look forward to 2010, I am very pleased to report that we have realized significant progress in our work in providing educational services to the people of Lire community in Kajo-keji County, South Sudan.  Our fundraising efforts to expand Lire Secondary School into Lire Comprehensive College are proving success and the first of three building blocks is closer to completion with the roof now installed....Senos Timon

The mission of Southern Sudan Humanitarian Action Development Agency is to help provide educational, economic development, and basic health care opportunities to the people of Kajokeji county and area in Southern Sudan.  Kajokeji is a small county in Southern Sudan that shares its southern border with Uganda.  This area has been especially hard hit by the civil war with much of its social and economic infrastructure destroyed.

Education

There is no better investment in the future of a country than in the education of its people. So many children are scattered in the displaced areas in Southern Sudan. With the influx of refugees returning back to Southern Sudan, the few schools left after the war lack funding and resources. SSHADA's first priority is to provide basic education to these children.

Development

Rebuilding a war-torn land will be a long and difficult process. SSHADA is committed to building a strong infrastructure and to helping the people become self-reliant economically. Through development these children will have more access to education and a secure future.

Southern Sudan Humanitarian Action Development Agency Inc. (SSHADA) is a non-profit corporation, based in Saskatchewan Canada.
