Our Story of Hope and Transformation

Christ Hope Orphanage was founded with a simple yet powerful vision: to rescue hope and provide love, care, and education to orphaned and vulnerable children in Uganda. Our journey began when our founder, moved by personal experience and divine calling, decided to make a difference in the lives of children who had lost everything.

Starting with just a few children in a small rented house, we have grown into a comprehensive care facility that includes a shelter home, a nursery and primary school, and various support programs. Every day, we work tirelessly to ensure that each child in our care receives the love, education, and opportunities they deserve.

Our name, "Christ Hope," reflects our foundation in Christian values and our mission to bring hope to those who need it most. We believe that every child is precious and has the right to a safe, loving environment where they can grow and thrive.
