How it Works
In Uganda, children die daily of malnutrition, and of lack of medical treatment, basic necessities & loving care. Many of the children live in desperate situations, sleeping on dirt floors and becoming infested with lice, fleas, and worms. Many will grow up with no education from lacking the means to pay public school fees.
Most of the children supported through sponsorship live with a single parent, intact impoverished family or extended family members; some are cared for in the ministry’s Children’s Home. Ministry staff see sponsored children weekly at AWANA club activities and visit their homes regularly to supplement food, clothing and household needs. Donations help us provide these educational and supplemental needs.
In order to raise these children out of the cycle of poverty into which they were born, sponsorship offers a quality education at the ministry’s Genesis Nursery and Primary School as well as secondary school (high school) and vocational or university training in the country.
We have also established Holmes Medical Clinic to provide affordable medical care to the community and our sponsored children. Your generous gift will allow us to provide ongoing, vital medical services to those who would otherwise go untreated for serious conditions.
