NEWS RELEASE

What would you do if you had an incurable neurologic illness? Quit work and sit things out? Go on disability? Jim Haverlock was handed just such a challenge some 13 years ago when his doctors first told him he had Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), a diagnosis later amended to progressive multiple sclerosis. After a few dark moments, Jim rose from the mat and began wrestling the dragon which seemed determined to make his life miserable and short. He went on to found and run a very successful online Internet furniture business called 1shop4u.com. But that’s not all!

Jim, being a man who feels that the best way to help yourself is to reach out and help others, took on helping people mired in poverty, sickness and lack of opportunities: The people of Uganda. Jim’s involvement led to the creation of Compassion-Care, a 501C-3 nonprofit organization which, in its short existence, has rolled up its sleeves and taken on such projects as:

Gabba Centre for Deaf, Dumb, Blind Children – in Kampala, Uganda, East Africa

And

Planning for a new FREE School in a remote area of Uganda where people have nothing to their name, not even clothing, but want an education for their children so they can have hope for the future, and an opportunity for employment. This school will be a very simple structure on land we already own. There is room for a garden where students and staff can grow their own vegetables, a simple solar cooker kitchen area, and some minimal supplies on-hand such as books, pens pencils, paper and other school supplies. The salary for a teacher is just $100 per month.

The ARTEMISININ Project which is dedicated to aid those afflicted with malaria by buying and disseminating the anti-malarial drug artemesinin. Artemesinin is a plant-derived compound that has been proven effective in combating malaria. We at Compassion Care want to make it available to those who cannot travel or afford medical care.

If you are sitting there – sick or well – and not doing something to ease the plight of others – Jim and his directors have only two questions to put to you: “Why not?” “If not you, than who?”

If you feel a tug in your heart,...a still small voice that says “Don’t just sit there, get involved!” – please call, write or e-mail Compassion-Care and lend your voice and some of your resources to the cause. By so doing you too can change the world – one person at a time.

Mission:

Providing and working towards ...

Compassion-Care.org touches the lives of those in need, and works tirelessly to make a positive difference in individual lives. A non-profit, non-governmental, non-denominational charity, Compassion-Care.org is devoted to affirming the dignity and worth that exists in every human being, as well as to promote and teach respect for people without regard or distinction based on race, color, creed, sex, religious tradition or lack of same, sexual orientation, language, social or educational status.

Compassion-Care.org is dedicated to exploring all avenues and possibilities that nurture the human spirit and advance the human condition, and in this vein works diligently to foster the mental, physical, spiritual, and emotional well-being of all those in need.

Committed to empowering those who need a helping hand, Compassion-Care provides a range of learning opportunities to impoverished or otherwise disadvantaged children and adults.

With an emphasis on those who are impoverished, Compassion Care helps struggling peoples acquire the knowledge, skills and self-esteem necessary to survive, thrive and progress; in turn, this exposure helps make for a healthier, happier and more productive lifestyle.

Compassion Care provides the means for securing a decent education and the essentials for self empowerment for those who otherwise would not have the chance to move forward.

Each and every day, Compassion Care makes it possible for underprivileged people to lay hold on the tools they need to surmount the enemies of genuine advancement -- poverty, illiteracy, and the hopelessness and lack of vision this tends to spawn.

Compassion Care offers sponsorship programs that provide safe, nurturing schools for children whose families have little or no economic means, as well as medical care for them and their families. In rural villages, Compassion Care provides villagers with medical and dental care, educational facilities for children, food for the hungry, and scholarships for those wishing to attend a university, Trade School, or other institute of higher learning.

At Compassion Care healing is viewed as a process of growth and self-empowerment predicated on nurturing the individual, which necessarily includes love, unconditional acceptance, unbridled encouragement and ceaseless prayer. In addition Compassion Care is committed to providing safe, hygenic water and a nutritious meal to those who have not eaten; creating opportunities for bright, underprivileged youngsters to attend school; making sure clothes and shoes are made available to children who have none. Compassion-Care is also about binding up the deep wounds of want by providing shelter for those who lack a roof over their heads, and teaching indigenous peoples the skills necessary to support themselves and even generate a decent income.

Compassion Care is all about advancing human welfare -- one baby, one child, one adult at a time. We truly believe that to save one life is to save the world.

How does this work?
It's easy - the owners of BestBuysUSA.com, Dreamcatcher Consulting, Inc., have committed to sending 50% of net earnings to aid in providing clean and safe water, tuition fees for young people wanting an education, but whose families have no means at all, in Uganda.
Why Uganda?
When I first learned of people living in remote villages, who could not afford even a shirt and who live naked, it was easy. First, these people want their children to have an education, it is just not within their means. The families have no education to secure one of the few jobs that are available, so they raise some little food if they can, and weather permitting. This just barely gets them by and most of the time they have just one small meal a day.
Then I met some of the young people, had long discussions about their life, their dreams and their desire to obtain an education. Then looking into the schools, I found tuition to be cheap compared to the USA, and decided to start helping as best I could. It has been rewarding to follow each of them as they progress through school. They are intelligent, and the ones I have sponsored are at the top of their class. They have become much happier, work very hard, and are determined to better their lot in life. But their is only so many that one person, disabled and earning a meager income, can help.
How can one not help? For me it is impossible to turn my head the other way.
Thus, we set up an account at NCNB bank in Twisp, WA - St. Catherine's School - where any money contributed to help these people can be sent. The money is spent in it's entirety on water projects, tuition and even some medical aid. Bank address is:
NCNB
PO Box 7
Twisp, WA 98856
Phone is: 509-997-2411
Make checks payable to: St. Catherine's Uganda
