Christians United for Evangelism, Education and Development (CUEED) is a South Sudan indigenous non-profit, non- commercial and non-political organization founded in 2010 and the NGO is currently operating at Rual in Awan Pajok County, Gogrial Diocese in South Sudan.

CUEED and St. James Primary School management committee are struggling with the development, Children of St. James Primary School are learning under trees and the classrooms are demanding more money to be built. With this reason, CUEED office has  prepared an application request for funds and sent it to you for your consideration in your meeting. CUEED is planning to buy 50 pregnant Heifers for expansion of the cow herd at St. James Primary School. You will see their photos on the attached project proposal. CUEED is working to request any respectful Donors to contribute any amount of money that the donor is able to pay for this project. One pregnant Heifer is $650 and we welcome all gifts small, medium and big.

CUEED has established a cattle dairy farm in Rual Primary School & St. Paul Primary School. The management committees of the two schools get good income. The project is a way forward for management committees of primary schools to earn more money which will enable them to build concrete school buildings.

This Cows Dairy Farm project for St. James Primary School is being sent to you  for your support. CUEED mean Christians United for Evangelism, Education and Development. It was founded by Episcopal Church members working in two Episcopal Dioceses, Gogrial and Nyamalel in South Sudan. God bless you. Yours in Christ.
