Here's the Scoop

Hi, I'm Cheryl. What this campaign is about is giving hope and a future to a 16 year old boy and his family from Uganda. My family and I met Regan James just last year while he was touring Canada with his school. He was happy to meet us, because we are a family of artists and so is he. Opening up to us, he told us about his dream of becoming a video editor. When I saw his desire to help others, and the potential he had to make a difference for his country, I quickly became interested in getting behind him to support him in reaching his goals. 

What we need first and foremost is to make sure that he and his family are provided for. Our goal is for them to be able to buy property in Uganda so they can run a chicken farm. Currently Regan James and his mother and five siblings are renting a small place, and only one of his sisters is working. The others are sponsored so that they can go to school. However with your help, they can have their own property and a chicken farm to sustain them.

Secondly, we are supporting him to make his dream a reality. Regan James dream is to become a video editor, and produce movies. His desire is to come back to Canada so he can attend school here, to learn video editing. My husband, Jared and I, with our sons, Toby and Jairus, are very excited to have him come to live with us so he can fulfill his dream.

If you will join in and help alongside us, Regan James and his family will experience hope and a future. The magnitude of your contributions how ever small or large will be very far reaching. Through his movies, he plans to promote change in his country and even reaching all over the world. You have the honour of being a part of this!

What We Need & What You Get

We will be needing at least $10,000 for land and a chicken farm. If we don't reach our goal, our family will still give all the money we raise to Regan James and his family and we will continue to fund raise in other ways in order to help them become established with their own property and chicken & egg business. If we exceed the amount, 100% of the funds will still go to him and his family, for building a house, establishing their business. The cost of the Perks you get will be covered by generous businesses like Creative Print All in Steinbach, MB and others, separate from this campaign. 
Some of the perks we offer are t-shirts, vinyl stickers, original paintings by Cheryl Nickel and an invitation to attend a party at our house for Regan James when he comes to Canada. See pictures of the art in the Gallery.

The Impact

The really cool thing about this campaign is that Regan James will be making movies, and you will be able to see them. You can simply follow him on YouTube and see his movies progress throughout the years. His mandate is to promote change in Uganda first, and then the rest of the world. What a difference you will be making just by contributing to this campaign, enabling him to live out his calling.

Personally, I have never felt so passionate or driven about any project I have undertaken before this. I am very honoured that God has put me in a position that I can do something so significant as this.

In the future we plan to take our family to visit Uganda. It will be so exciting to meet Regan James family and see the impact you all have made in their lives by your generous contributions. In advance, I want to thank you so much for caring! 

Other Ways You Can Help
