<p> Stephen Shames Foundation is a nonprofit organization that collects donations to educate AIDS orphans, child soldiers, sex slaves, child laborers, street kids, siblings in child-headed families, and other vulnerable children in Uganda. </p> <p> To achieve this goal we partner with Concern for the Future. </p> <p> Concern for the Future is an indigenous NGO (nonprofit) run by Director Monica Nankoma and nine &quot;moms&quot; and &quot;dads,&quot; six of whom are HIV positive. Our goal is to locate children living on the edges of society and mold them into leaders. Concern for the Future helps our smart, motivated AIDS orphans and child soldiers prepare for university. Concern for the Future enrolls 75 students in the best boarding schools in Uganda. </p>

In the West, people don’t believe animals have souls, do they? That’s not true in Japan, though. I myself believe that dogs and cats have souls — but that has nothing to do with a specific religion. Children have similar feelings about dolls — if they love a doll enough, they feel that it’s alive. That feeling is universal. It’s not something they’re taught — they just feel it somehow. It’s not connected with any religious belief. —Mamoru Oshii, Japanese director
