Re: [WestNileNet] Nebbi Teenager's Plight
Members May I know how we hope to collect and organize the assistance we might want to extend to this unfornate family? It would be good if we do it in a coordinated manner as members of Westnile net or WNF. Any focal persons to contact? By the way where exactly is this family now in Nebbi?, Nebbi town, one of the sub counties, what village?

Re: [WestNileNet] Nebbi Teenager's Plight
Robert, I think the idea of us delivering the assistance is welcome, but in the mean time, can members raise what ever they can. Listen Ladies and Gentlemen, Imagine you were dead and your great grand daughter was raped while she was 13, Yet your daughter is 28 but now a grandmother, what would you do in your helpless grave. It does not matter whether one is from Nebbi or any where. Why are we quiet. Ndugu Anguzu, how many West Nilers have responded to this clarion call?

Re: [WestNileNet] Nebbi Teenager's Plight
Great gesture comrades, The team at the helm of the up coming West Nile Culture and Heritage Event will have a special basket to this cause. Gbu and kind regards. From: Robert Ejiku To: A Virtual Network for friends of West Nile Sent: Mon, 18 April, 2011 9:25:47 Subject: [WestNileNet] Nebbi Teenager's Plight Alaka, I would love that a visit is paid to the family especially when some of us travel for the Easter weekend in Arua. I am also not sure if we should pass through Red Cross or we set up the initiative and deliver it. Your gesture is fantastic however I would love if we can also assess the short term needs (6 months to one year) of this family. The news papers today say, the grandmother plans to take the family to the village to avoid rent which would inevitably affect the young mother's chances of going to school and even the baby's health could deteriorate as a result. Its best to get the baby out of danger first before any decision of that nature is taken. If a room of UGX 6,000 per month is okay for them to live in, I can offer them the year's rent. With other additional help from our good selves on this network we can raise them resources to last them sometime. The immediate assistance to rescue them from dying needs to go as quickly as possible as Alaka has started but more help needs to be got for sometime. Some of the resources need not be money but in kind to avoid mismanagement. In anycase we need also to think about how the resources raised can be used in a sustainable manner. Is the simsim business worth or is there something else they can do? Assistance to them can also be extended in measured amounts over time and not large once. These can be assessed. My take, over to fellow contributors on this network.
