Geaux Foundation The Geaux Foundation mission is to bring more followers to Christ and rescue teen girls from poverty.

It is with profound sadness that we share the passing of one of our beloved alumni, Trust.

Trust graduated from our program in 2023. During her time with us, she came to know Jesus and accepted Him as her Savior. She also learned valuable vocational skills in sewing and hair braiding, allowing her to start her own business in her village and begin helping support her family.

Recently, we received the heartbreaking news that Trust became critically ill with a severe case of malaria. Despite receiving medical care, she tragically passed away. Her death is a painful reminder that malaria remains a preventable disease that continues to claim far too many young lives.

Trust's kindness, determination, and faith left a lasting impact on everyone who knew her. We are grateful to have been part of her journey, and we will always remember her.

As we mourn this tremendous loss, we are also reminded why this work matters. Every girl deserves the opportunity to build a future filled with hope, dignity, and independence.

To our faithful donors and supporters, thank you. Your generosity continues to give young women the education, skills, and opportunities to transform their lives and the lives of their families. We are deeply grateful for your partnership as we continue this mission in honor of girls like Trust.

Please join us in praying for Trust's family and loved ones during this difficult time.

Every girl who walks through the doors of Geaux Foundation starts the same way.
She gets a uniform. She sits down while the handbook is read to her. And then the training begins.
That moment, when a young woman puts on that uniform for the first time, is the moment everything changes. It's the day she stops being overlooked and starts being equipped.
Graduation is coming. And it started with day one.

She grew up in the forest.
So when a snake got into the chicken house, she was the only girl who wasn't afraid.
Most people see Grace's courage today.
They don't see where it came from.
Grace spent her childhood in the forest, learning how to survive. It taught her to be watchful. To trust no one. To expect danger around every corner.
When she first arrived at Geaux Foundation, she kept her distance.
She believed everyone was a threat.
She didn't know what it meant to be safe.
Then one day, a snake slithered into the chicken house.
The girls froze.
But Grace stepped forward.
The creatures of the forest were familiar to her. With a calmness that surprised everyone, she caught it and carried it away.
And in that moment, we understood something profound:
The very place that wounded her had also shaped her strength.
The forest took so much from Grace.
But it also gave her courage.
Now, that courage has a different purpose.
The girl who once trusted no one has become someone the others turn to when they're afraid. She protects. She encourages. She leads.
Sometimes God takes the things we learned in survival and transforms them into gifts that serve others.
Grace had that bravery in her all along.
She simply needed a place where it could bloom.
Grace is graduating in July. Help us give her a future.

Living together isn't always easy. When 12 young women share a small space, conflict happens. But conflict isn't the end of the story at Geaux Foundation. It's where the real training begins.

Peace noticed the tension early. Instead of separate rules for separate people, she paired the girls as accountability partners. They chose their own teams. They made their own schedules. Who washes dishes today, who does it tomorrow, decided together.

That's not just a chore chart. That's leadership in the making.

Seven machines funded. Five more to go.
Someone pooled their friends together and bought five at once. Two others each bought one. That's seven girls who will graduate in July with something that belongs to them.
We still need five more at $130 each.
If you've been waiting for a sign, this is it. Get four friends or family members together. Split one machine at $33 each. Do it over a group chat, a birthday dinner, a Sunday after church.
Twelve girls. Twelve machines. Graduation is in July.

Your family doesn't have to be in the same room to do something meaningful together.

One Zoom call. One shared link. Four family members at $33 each. You've just funded a sewing machine for a young woman graduating in Uganda this July.

She spent 6 months learning to sew. She needs a machine to build a business and support her family. Your family can give her that in one conversation.

That's the Sewing Machine Challenge.

7 down. 5 to go. 🧵
In just a few days, 7 sewing machines have been funded for young women graduating in Uganda this July. That's 7 girls who will walk out of their program with the tools to actually build something.
We still need 5 more before July 31.
Each one is $130. Every dollar goes directly to the machine. No overhead.
Can you fund the next one? Can you split it with a friend?

At 13, Patience Nabirye became the mother of her household overnight.
Her mom left without warning. Her dad stopped showing up. As the oldest, Patience stepped in. She cooked, she cared for her siblings, she held things together on days when there was barely anything to hold.
Then her aunt heard about the Geaux Foundation and brought Patience to us.
Today, Patience is 15. She knows how to sew. She is building something that belongs to her.
For $130, you can make sure she graduates with a sewing machine in her hands. It will be the first thing she has ever owned.
We have 12 girls ready to graduate. We need 12 machines.

Patience Nabirye stepped up as the oldest sibling at 13 when both parents walked away. Today she's 15 and learning to build something that's entirely hers.
For $130, you can make sure she graduates with a sewing machine in her hands. It will be the first thing she has ever owned.

In July, 12 young women will graduate from our sewing program in Uganda.

They wake up at 5:30am every day. They attend devotions, classes, and skills training. They've spent 6 months learning to sew with precision and purpose.

When they graduate, they won't have a machine to work on.

Without a machine, the skills they worked so hard to build are much harder to put to use. A sewing machine isn't just a tool: it's how she starts a business, supports her family, and builds something that belongs to her.

Each machine costs $130. We need 12. That's $1,560 total — and every dollar goes directly to purchasing the machines before graduation day.

No overhead. No mystery. Just machines in the hands of women who are ready to use them.

We're calling this the Sewing Machine Challenge and we need your help before July 31.

👉 give.geauxfoundation.org

Can you fund one? Can you split one with 3 friends? Can you share this with someone who can?

One machine. One woman. One real shot at independence.
