This past Christmas The Watts Family decided that instead of buying each other $50 gifts, they would donate that money to Buy-A-Net in order to give help to those who need it. Their total was $550!

Testimonials

This experience has been so rewarding to my whole family that we have sold our house and are in the process of planning a trip back to Africa for 3 months in 2010. We are filled with hopes to continue spreading awareness through film, paintings and music… what we know best. I would like to sincerely thank Buy-A-Net for helping to shape my life’s purpose.

I was awe struck by the overall spirit of happiness, warmth, and appreciation the Ugandan people shared with us. The kids are amazing and love to sing, play games with you or cuddle, just like all kids. That is the most lasting impression I will keep with me: the wonderful people and their spirit! For me, this has been a nursing experience of a career!

The trip to Rulagwe, Uganda truly affirmed to me the important of the work done by Buy-A-Net. I had struggled with the idea of volunteering because whose job was it to impose Western values on those in developing countries, yet the experience I had in Rulagwe showed me that in the case of malaria it is not about the imposition of Western values but about the importance of how a little education can go along in keeping people healthy.
