Special Opportunity *: Due to the high orphan situation in the churches of Uganda and in the communities that our project is working, in we are offering this "sponsor a child" program.

It only costs about 10 dollars per month for each child. A monthly contribution of $30 - $50 per month can take care of many needy children. Click here to advise us of your interest - or simply use the 'Make A Donation' button.

* Many times it is hard for Christians to find a ministry or mission they can participate in. This is an opportunity to do so. To have impact. Start here and see how God blesses this seed you sow.

Matt. 24.14   And this Gospel of the Kingdom shall be preached in the whole world.

Margaret’s husband died last year (2000) and left her with 4 children and one adopted child. She is has not yet developed AIDS, she is still strong to work in the garden. She gets income from growing crops like maize, beans, matoke, and cassava e.t.c. From her produce she earns some little money to support her family needs. But she cannot fully meet all her needs like; medical treatment for the children, tuition fees and scholastic materials, and their house is almost collapsing on them.

Through home based care our counselors go out everyday and visit families to offer counseling, some medical and physical support whenever it is available.

 

 

 

David (Counselor) is talking to Charles is HIV+ and he has developed AIDS. He complains of severe diarrhea, skin rush and headache. He has a wife but all the three children died of AIDS. He can longer work in the garden because he is very weak. It is the wife who goes out everyday to look for money to support the husband with medical treatment and other home basic needs. Due to lack of consistent income, they cannot afford all the meals. Charles needs more support for treatment and other needs like food e.t.c.

Moses 11 (left) and Abbey 8 (right) are brothers, their parents died of AIDS and they live with their grandmother 84 years old. But she cannot fully support them because due her age she cannot work to earn money to meet their needs. So they have resorted to cattle keeping to be earning some money to support themselves and the grandmother. They need support to be able to continue with their formal education, a permanent house, and other home needs like food, medical care e.t.c. Their grandmother is very sick due to age and lack of proper medical care.
