Child Sacrifice greatly reduced in the Mukono area

Tamsy Baker from Guildford has been supporting Sarah Nakintu for the last ten years. 

After her six-week leadership course in Canada, in January Sarah was offered the position of Lead Facilitator for World Vision's Child Sacrifice Programme starting in September. 

Two months later, World Vision said she had to be able to drive and have her own car. 

Child Sacrifice is rooted in the belief that blood sacrifice can bring fortune, wealth and happiness.

Children are either abducted from, or in some cases actually given to, witch doctors by relatives out of desperation for money.

Sarah's  programme reduced child sacrifice in the 40 communities in Mukono to almost non-existence.
