Supporting whanau/family/friends in Gulu, Northern Uganda with - a -family
After 7 years in Gulu there are many family and friends who can use our friendship and support. Kia ora whanau....
In 2012 following the horrific balloon accident in Carterton New Zealand Geoff witnessed he accepted an invitation from his Danish friend Berit Lund to visit Uganda... From visit ... G
eoff was captivated returning in May 2013 for a four month stay where a relationship started formed with the little village of Ludok in Odek at the centre of the LRA rebellion and 20 years of warring.... Geoff saw an opportunity to help the people get back on their feet and gain back a degree of self respect after 15 years in IDP Camps....... a farming project began in Ludok and on return to NZ working with People with Albinism commenced. Fast forward to Dec 2016 when Geoff returned to Gulu and is still here with a family and now in Nov 2021 a Community Based Organisation ‘Ki Gen Sanctuary Gulu’ - “Transforming lives of young women survivors of sexual violence, enhancing life for all through love and kindness.”
Every day Geoff gets asked for help, while I can’t help everyone I can with your support help some... so welcome to Papa Geoffs Gulu Support Village, the home of supporting those I wish to help and where my family also seek your support to allow this work!!
