Ugandan Lambs Association USA Is Honored As 2013 Top-Rated Nonprofit Organization

Online, August 6, 2013 (Newswire.com) - "We are excited to be named a Top-Rated 2013 Nonprofit," says Sam Sebabi, Founder, Ugandan Lambs Association, USA. We are proud of our accomplishments this year, including providing food, shelter, medical care, spiritual guidance, and a quality education to 70 orphaned children living in Uganda; completing construction on a new orphanage, and purchasing a 90 acre parcel of land for future development.

The Top-Rated Nonprofit award was based on the large number of positive reviews that Ugandan Lambs Association USA received - reviews written by volunteers, donors and clients. People posted their personal experience with the nonprofit.

For example, one person wrote, "I have been involved in Ugandan Lambs in various capacities for over eight years. I have been a director within the organization, a volunteer, as well as a donor. Ugandan Lambs has made a significant impact on the lives of these children in Uganda. I have been to Uganda twice to photograph and document the work being done by this organization, and I have seen the differences first-hand. I've been to the village that many of these children were born in, and have seen the difference it has made to provide schooling, clothing, and resources to succeed. Ugandan Lambs is interested in breaking the cycle of poverty and assistance by teaching these children how to give back to their family through vocational education, rather than just giving hand-outs to the children. This is a critical difference in the organization and one that will have a lasting impact."

While the Top-Rated Awards run through the end of October, Ugandan Lambs Association USA was part of the inaugural group to qualify for the year. "Savvy donors want to see the impact of their donations more than ever," said Perla Ni, CEO of GreatNonprofits, "People with direct experience with Ugandan Lambs Association USA have voted that the organization is making a real difference."

Being on the Top-Rated list gives donors and volunteers more confidence that this is a credible organization. The reviews by volunteers, clients and other donors show the on-the-ground results of this nonprofit. This award is a form of recognition by the community.

Ugandan Lambs Association USA's mission is to provide the children in our care with a safe and nurturing environment, facilitate and monitor their education, and promote their physical and spiritual well-being, which gives the children a foundation on which to build successful lives and become leaders in their community.
