chairman’s message Welcome Luke Willey...

It is with a great deal of pleasure that, on behalf of the Board, I welcome and introduce Luke Willey, our new Watoto Child Care Ministries Australia CEO and Country Director.

Luke was born and raised in Brisbane’s bayside and he and his wife Rachael have 2 daughters, Makayla and Lauren. Both Luke and Rachael have a heart for the children of Africa and a long association with Watoto, having worked in Uganda in 2003 and 2005 and led the Watoto Childrens’ Choir tour to Canada and the USA in 2004.

Luke has a background as a professional photographer and is well known and respected in Brisbane’s photographic industry. He is very relational and brings a fresh, vibrant and exciting new drive to Watoto Australia which we trust will help grow this great work. The Board is impressed by his vision and we wish him and his staff all the very best for the year ahead.

Peter Harris Chairman of the Board

ceo’s message “We are all called,

but it is our call to respond” – unknown If ever there is a time to be involved in making a difference in the world - it is now. It is a great privilege and pleasure to be a part of a team of people here in Australia who are passionate about raising awareness and rallying support for the vulnerable woman & children of Uganda.

It has been an exciting few months since starting in late May. We have seen our 10th Choir to visit Australia continue to develop as a team & raise awareness while they travel throughout our country.

We have sponsored in excess of 600 new children, women and teachers as a direct result of this years “Concert of Hope” tour and have raised over $.5m to invest back into the work of Watoto. Team 49 will be heading back to Uganda late October.

Our office is also excited and preparing for the Beautiful Africa: A New Generation tour, which will start in April 2012. There is a sense of anticipation with our staff about this all new concert with bookings already starting to be confirmed.

In the last year there has been some significant changes not only in staff and structure here in Australia but also moving into our new premises in Springwood. Since Watoto was started here in Australia we had the support of Gateway Baptist Church, but as they have also expanded, we realised a new location for Watoto is what was needed for both of us to move forward. I want to thank Gateway for their continued support over the years; we could not have done it without you.

I would also like to thank the individuals, families, companies, & organisations that have supported us over the 2010/11 financial year. I know first hand the difference your donations, pledges and sponsorships make in the lives of those who we have been called to help – So thank you for responding to this call.

It brings me great pleasure to present to you Watoto Child Care Ministries Australia’s Annual report for 2010/11. As we continue to seek transparency throughout Watoto Australia we trust you will enjoy reading what was accomplished this past year.

the watoto story

I

n 1988, in a town called Rakai, I was confronted by a naked reality that I could not ignore.

Eight years earlier, my family and I had moved to Uganda – a country famous for violence and poverty. In

Kampala, Uganda’s battered capital, we planted a church that we believed God would use to restore hope to the city and the nation.

Uganda’s people had endured so much. Corrupt and oppressive rulers had waged ruthless wars against the people, and when they were done with their slaughter, nearly one million were left dead.

I was taken to visit a 79-year-old widow. She had mothered seven children. As we walked through banana groves behind her small hut, she began to point out the graves of her husband and six of her children.

AIDS had killed all.

Her last surviving child – a daughter – was dying of the same disease.

I was reminded of the verse in James 1:27 that says, “Religion that GOD the Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after the orphan and the widow in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.”

My visit with this woman in a simple Ugandan village stirred me to the core of my being and became one of the defining moments of my life.

Watoto Child Care Ministries Uganda was birthed out of our local church, Watoto Church, in 1994 as

a result.

in a safe family environment rather than a large institutional orphanage. They become part of a family unit for life in the Watoto community. A sponsored individual has multiple sponsors in order to provide the holistic care that is required to equip them for success in life. The sponsorship of a Watoto child, house mother, teacher, Baby Watoto or Living Hope helps to meet the recurring costs.

Babies Sponsorship

Baby Watoto is a home for abandoned and vulnerable babies. Tiny preemies to toddlers, found on rubbish heaps, in trash cans or abandoned in hospitals and police stations, are brought to their new home where they find acceptance and unconditional love. When these babies are old enough to enter a Watoto children’s village, they continue their journey to become Africa’s next generation of leaders. There are currently two babies’ homes in Kampala and one in Gulu.

peace, education, purpose and spiritual vitality.

Children between the ages of 2 and 12 are accepted into the villages, where they are cared for by a house mother, and live with 7 other siblings. They attend school and receive a quality education. A community centre for school assemblies, community functions and church services is also a part of the village. A clinic is established to provide adequate health care.

These funds are to sponsor the House Mothers.

Teacher’s Sponsorship

These funds are to assist with the costs of school teacher’s in the villages by way of sponsorship.

Living Hope Sponsorship/ Donations

The most marginalised and wounded people in Africa are women. Left abandoned or widowed, many of them HIV+ themselves, they are destitute and desperate, fearing that their children will soon become more of Africa’s orphans. Living Hope is restoring dignity to vulnerable women through spiritual discipleship, improved quality of life, medical intervention including HIV/AIDS care, empowerment and income generating projects through microfinance loans. These funds are to support the Living Hope program.

Building Funds

You can visit Africa and experience the work of Watoto firsthand. Visitors to Uganda are welcome and appreciated. You can get involved by helping to build a village, serve as part of a medical team or participate in a ministry team. Each person, church, group or organisation raises the funds for the project they choose to participate in. Short and long term volunteer opportunities are also available.

Undesignated

Watoto’s partners contribute to infrastructure, future development, or investing in the lives of the individuals who are accepted into the Watoto family. Donate in kind from the needs list on our website or make a one-off donation in cash.

There’s also an opportunity to support fundraising events, fundraise on behalf of Watoto or give a non-cash gift through the Watoto Leadership Foundation.

Goat Farm

At Watoto, it is critical to generate selfsustainability for continuing development. The Goat Farm is one project where Goats are farmed for milk to be used in the Watoto Babies Homes.

It is planned for this project to become fully selfsustainable and also to be able to sell the milk and surplus goats to the community.

choir helps to raise awareness and funds for Watoto

The Restore Tour: Child Soldier No More concept had been on the hearts of many for years but it wasn’t until early 2011 that we saw the purpose God had for this performance. Many lives were drastically changed and inspired by the stories told by these beautiful children who were forced to commit unimaginable atrocities on their own people. The message of unfailing hope through adversity could not have come at a better time for Australia as the nation battled floods and bushfires that devastated whole communities. The team took their message to large churches and small towns all over Australia and New Zealand, not leaving a dry eye in sight! We were overwhelmed by the response both financially and by the feedback we received. There is still much to be done in Northern Uganda but this tour has shown the world what can happen when we stand by each other offering forgiveness, love and a helping hand just as God shows us daily.

watoto children’s choir TOUR 42 The 2010/2011 financial year saw the end of the tour for Choir 42. This wonderful team had worked hard for six months to share the love, hope and forgiveness of our amazing God to Australia and New Zealand.

We are so thankful to those who

supported us by attending this performance, hosting the team and for those who partnered with us to see the work of Watoto continue to grow and reach more destitute individuals throughout Uganda. The team have long since gone and settled back into life in Uganda. The children have returned back to school and are growing and learning to become the next leaders of Uganda!

Andrew dancing his heart out

TOUR 49 The 2011 Concert of Hope started their six month tour with much excitement in Perth WA. They then have taken their message across Australia and the North Island of NZ sharing the newfound hope they have in Jesus. These 22 beautiful children are advocates of the millions of orphaned children in Africa and they take their job seriously whilst having a tonne of fun doing it! They seek to share their restoration story so that others may partner with us to help change the story of someone else’s life. We have been blessed at the performances by hundreds of people coming alongside us through our sponsorship program and donating towards the work of Watoto. The children in turn have blessed thousands with their inspiring story and we have once again been overwhelmed by Uncle Brian with James, Emmy & Oscar

the feedback we’ve received. As the choir are still on the road we are excited to see and hear the work God is continuing to do through them!

3 year choir strategy

O

ver the next 3 years, Watoto Australia will be implementing some significant changes to the way the Children’s choir travels through out Australia and New Zealand.

The goals we are looking to achieve as a direct result to the changes are as follows.

• To communicate and raise awareness among Australian communities that are yet to hear of the work of Watoto.

• To increase the numbers of people that experience the Watoto choir by 20% each year.

• To reduce the cost of tour • To better understand the needs of churches as they reach their local communities • To Increase our community awareness by promoting and having a publicity plan for the Australian tour • To have a skeleton of each tour outlined before we approach churches.

• Be in key cities at specific event times (eg. Hillsong, Easterfest) • Approach churches to nominate a key “ambassador” for the up coming tour in their church • To Employ a PR staff member 1 day per week in our Australian office to be dedicated in promo/ media/publicity • To convert awareness into action by raising 20 ambassadors & 20 Fundraisers per year • To have three Major media coverage events for 2012 tour • To have one major media coverage per choir month by the 2013 tour

These goals will help to continually improve the professionalism of Watoto Australia and of the choirs that tour here.

Build Teams from Australia The Australian office assisted in arranging 15 Build Teams to visit Watoto and complete building projects in the year ending 30th June 2011. Houses, classrooms, medical facilities, administration & housing blocks were all projects that Australian Teams funded and worked on.

These teams came from churches, schools, corporate and community groups and Watoto are very blessed to receive this much needed support. Team members are supervised by and work alongside the Ugandan Watoto Construction team We are well on target to increase the number of teams from Australia to 20 in the 2011/2012 period.

Individual Volunteers There were 10 individual volunteers from Australia, who spent a minimum one month volunteering in Watoto Uganda working and serving alongside the Watoto team and making contributions to transforming lives.

These volunteers served in programmes such as Baby Watoto / Living Hope / Children’s villages / medical clinics / office and administrative areas.

We currently have 13 individual volunteers registered to work in Uganda in the 2011/2012 period.

visit watoto Watoto 360˚ Six students from Australia completed the Watoto 360˚ program, and is a Christian training program designed to encourage students in personal character development, cultivating a living relationship with God, and identifying their unique individual gifts and callings in God. WATOTO 360˚ is unique and comes out of our love for God and our desire to bring healing to our city, our nation, our continent and our world.

WATOTO 360˚ is dynamic and filled with activity, as a result.

WATOTO 360˚ does not use project funds from Australia

WATOTO 360˚ WATOTO 360˚ is a Christian discipleship course, not to be confused with a Bible college program. In-class instruction is combined with hands-on experience, giving students a balanced understanding of ministry.

Our desire is for students to learn and grow as individuals, to acquire knowledge and to gain wisdom that comes from applying that knowledge, so that when ministry opportunities are presented, the experiences they have had will enable them to serve with excellence. Discipleship courses begin with basic fundamentals of Christianity moving towards a deeper understanding of discipleship toward the end of the program.

There are currently 4 students from Australia registered for the next Watoto 360 progam which commences in January 2012.

INDEPENDENT AUDIT REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF

WATOTO AUSTRALIA TRUST ACCOUNT ABN 83 176 101 461

SCOPE REPORT

on the Financial Report

We have audited the attached financial report of Watoto Australia Trust Account, being a Special Purpose Financial Report which comprises the Balance Sheet, Income Statement, Statement of Cash Flows and Notes to the Financial Statements for the financial year ended 30 June 2011 as set out on the accompanying pages.

DIRECTORS’

Responsibility for the Financial Report

The trust’s directors are responsible for the financial report and have determined that the accounting policies used and described in Note 1 to the financial report and the accounting disclosures contained therein are appropriate to meet the needs of the members. The directors’ responsibility also includes establishing and maintaining internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies; and making accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances.

AUDITOR’S

Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. No opinion is expressed as to whether the accounting policies used, as described in Note 1, are appropriate to meet the needs of the members. We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. These Auditing Standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial report is free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial report in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report.

The financial report has been prepared for distribution to members of the entity for the purpose of fulfilling the directors’ financial reporting. We disclaim any assumption of responsibility for any reliance on this report or on the financial report to which it relates to any person other than the members or for any purpose other than that for which it was prepared.

REPORT

Limitation to Scope As is common for organisations of this type, it is not practicable to cost effectively audit the system of internal control over cash receipts of donations, subscriptions or other fund raising activities. Accordingly, our audit tests over receipts were limited to amounts already recorded in the books and records of the entity.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Independence In conducting our audit, we have complied with the independence requirements.

AUDITOR’S OPINION In our opinion, the financial report of Watoto Australia Trust Account for the year ended 30 June 2011 is in accordance with the constitution, including i.

giving a true and fair view of the trust's financial position as at 30 June 2011 and of its performance for the year ended on that date in accordance with the accounting policies described in Note 1; and

ii.

present a view which is consistent with our understanding of the entity’s financial position and the results of its operations; and

iii.

complying with Australian Accounting Standards to the extent described in Note 1.
