Currently, Uganda has 2.5 million orphans. Conservative estimates predict this number will grow exponentially as the AIDS epidemic sweeps a whole generation of parents away. Currently, Uganda has 2.5 million orphans. Conservative estimates predict this number will grow exponentially as the AIDS epidemic sweeps a whole generation of parents away. The average Ugandan family has 7 children. When parents die, their children are too great a burden for extended family to carry. Relatives already struggle to provide for their own. As a result, the children are farmed out to different family members in diverse locations. Therefore, an orphaned child loses not only his parents, but often his siblings as well. Some are treated poorly by resentful relatives. Others try to survive on the streets. In all respects, they are outcasts.
In the north, many children have lost their families as the result of a 20 year war. They come from slum cities (IDP camps), initially created by the Ugandan government to protect citizens from the Lords Resistance Army (LRA), a rebel group led by Joseph Kony. During the war, the LRA pulled young boys from their beds and forced them to be soldiers with a kill-or-be killed mandate

Care for Uganda ministries through its mobilisation of funds is striving to extend a loving hand to such children. we aim first at empowering the brains of these children who can still go back to school, the proceedure is for those who have where to stay take them to the nearby schools and those who don’t have accommodation we take them to boarding schools, the number of such kids is quite many, we are limited with the resources and that’s why we call upon any good samaritan who can stand with us in anyway with any form of help such that we restore hope in the young children who didn’t choose to live such a life.  They quite a number of requirements these kids need but among the necessities they need: clothes, food, shelter, soap, toothbrushes and toothpaste, scholastic materials, bedings, shoes, pads for girls, among others as God may guide you.
