rescueAs funds allow, we are working to rescue more children from children's prison, refugee camps, abuse, neglect, child marriages, child labor and child prostitution. Your donation is literally saving lives!
|
PROTECT
Once children have been rescued, we bring them into the safety and security of our full-time care. They are in a safe and loving environment where the things that they were rescued out of can no longer hurt them. Your donation is providing life saving protection!

provideWith your donations, we are able to provide 3 meals a day for our full time children and one meal a day for our students from the community that we educate. We also provide students with medical care and basic life necessities as well as uniforms for school.
|
restoreWe work with our rescued children to restore the broken and traumatized places in their hearts. We have counselors available to talk with the children and they also receive spiritual development opportunities. They have worship and prayers 3 times a day and are encouraged to seek the Father for their every need.

empowerIn Uganda, education equals safety. It is against the law to harm a child that is in school. Children that are in school are considered valuable members of society but children who are not in school are basically considered worthless. Your donations allow us to empower our children and children from the surrounding communities by receiving free education! Not only is it free education but it is the best education that is offered in Uganda.

transform
We believe that by taking all of the previous steps and sowing into a generation of children that we can raise up the next generation of leaders to transform Uganda. It is a big undertaking and may be many generations in the making but we plan to implement sustainable change and send restored and empowered children back out into their communities to impact culture, one child at a time

2019 impact
provided 200K + meals
Our resident children are fed 3 meals a day plus we also feed the students from the community one meal a day. For most of those students, it is their only meal of the day which they would not have gotten otherwise. Once a month, we also invite the community to have church and a meal on campus.
|
educated 658 students
We provided quality education to 420 students in Uganda between the ages of 3 and 20 years old at no charge to them. Not only is this free education, it is the highest quality education that is offered in Uganda.
|
provided 37 jobs
We were able to offer good employment to teachers, cooks, house moms and other staff as well as pay their salaries consistently. In addition to our 35 regular staff we were also able to hire many engineers and laborers for our construction projects.
|
Built 2 bathrooms
With our increasing number of children, the needs are increasing too. We were required by the government to add two additional bathrooms to meet sanitation requirements.
|
Built new kitchen
With the increasing number of children, the demands of cooking meals for everyone is also growing. We were able to build an additional kitchen to meet the needs of our kitchen staff and children.
|
50 new beds
We were able to purchase 50 new bunkbeds, mattresses and bedding giving 100 of our students a soft place to lay their head at night.
|
medical expenses
When we get new children, often times they are in rough shape and need a medical exam and special diet to get them to a healthy place. We were able to provide this of our new children as well as cover some expenses for our children who got sick or had other medical issues arrise.
|
30 new desks
We were able to provide new desks so the students would have comfortable learning environments and can get the very most our of their educational experience.
|
130 new uniforms
In Uganda, a uniform is a symbol of dignity. A uniform means that you are an educated child and considered a valued member of society. When children don't have uniforms they are at risk of being considered worthless and all of the awful crimes that come along with that stigma.
