We exist to empower single mother led families so they can keep their children home where they are loved and belong. 

​

There is a tragic trend in Uganda of children being moved into orphanages not because they don't have families or because their families don't love them, but because their families struggle to meet their basic needs. We work along side these families to help provide them with basic necessities and a safe home. 

​

Most importantly we believe in sharing the love of Christ in a tangible way. We see serving these families as an extremely powerful way of sharing Christ tangible love with our neighbors in Uganda. 

​

The ultimate goal is to keep families together and to love them so well that they come to know and love Christ. 

​

We love because He first loved us and we love so He may get much glory!
