Debbie Newman
Debbie is a trained Primary School Teacher and worked in Uganda as part of a teacher training team for a year. In May 2004 she visited Kamuli District and saw many children unable to learn because of simple infections that had been left untreated as a result of poverty. She knew that a God of love could make a difference to the children and so in September 2004 Helping Hands was “born”.
