“Andrew Eustace is also Trustee and CEO of ‘Smile Child Sponsorship’ a charity set up in 2024 to provide funding for specific children and projects in the village. PDH is pleased to partner with SCS and looks forward to working with them in the future. The future: The Trustees are looking forward to the coming year with four exciting projects already underway. We do not underestimate the difficulties facing a small charity of raising funds in the current financial and geo-political climate, and we are preparing for the challenges that supporting our brothers and sisters in South Sudan and Uganda inevitably brings. We truly value every pound that is given by our UK partners and supporters and assure you of our commitment to make every penny count as we seek to offer a ‘hand up’ to our brothers and sisters in Christ in a war torn and poverty-stricken land. As a Christian charity, we look always to God for his leading and guidance in our decision making and acknowledge His help in all the successes of the past year. Our Mandate: ‘All they asked was that we should continue to remember the poor.’ St Paul. Galatians Ch. 5 v. 10. Andrew Robertson May 2026 10” — page 10
