Tell a Friend – Make a Difference

From Rev. Jerry Drino, Hope With Sudan:

Lost Boys of the Sudan Documentary

This Sunday, May 31 KTEH, Channel 54 at 6:00 pm,, will present their documentary, “The Lost Boys of the Sudan.” Facing genocide as little boys, Peter Nyok and Simon Kuir Deng will relate the flight from their villages in Sudan when they were seven, running for weeks with other boys to Ethiopia where they stayed with nearly 40,000 other boys for three years. At ten they were forced back into Sudan and down into Kenya walking over a thousand miles and confronting death by Government troops and wild animals. After five months they came to Kakuma Refugee Camp where they continued their education while living on the brink of starvation for ten years. They were resettled with sixty other former Lost Boys and Girls in San Jose starting in 2001. Tell a friend and go to www.hopewithsudan.org where you can make a donation to support the orphans they have brought down into Kenya and Uganda to get an education. Donations can also be sent to Hope With Sudan, 5028 Hyland Ave, San Jose, CA 95127
