Subject: Submission of Proposal for Food Aid for the poor people in Uganda

In Uganda, most of the families lie below poverty line totaling to 75% and they depend on subsistence agriculture. In Uganda we have 2 planting season, March and July but sometimes the food harvested cannot sustain our people throughout the year to the next harvesting season.

We extend our sincere thanks for your kind consideration of our proposal. Please don’t hesitate to contact us for any requirements. It is important to note that the holy book (Quran) states that whosoever shall give in this period, he shall have a house in the Jana (paradise).

• We shall provide food packs to the widows, elderly people, orphans and people with disability.
