Droplets in a Stream Supporting the most vulnerable children in Kenya and Uganda 🧡 Join our community of changemakers | ACNC-registered charity | dias.asn.au

We partner with trusted leaders in East Africa who care for the most vulnerable children in their
communities - children who have endured abuse, violence, neglect, abandonment, and extreme
poverty. Together, we ensure our efforts are rooted in compassion and tailored to meet their unique needs. We believe that local leaders know their communities' needs best, so we walk alongside
them, offering gu

idance and resources to help them grow and sustain their impact. Our approach is built on collaboration - ensuring that solutions are culturally relevant, community-led, and sustainable for generations to come. When you donate to Droplets In A Stream, you can be confident that 100% of every dollar goes directly to supporting vulnerable children. Thanks to the generosity of our dedicated board, all
operational expenses are covered, ensuring that your contributions create a direct and lasting impact on the lives of those we serve. Donate at www.dias.asn.au

What if changing a child’s life started with a conversation?
Not a donation. Not a big moment.
Just telling one person about this work you support.

Mentioning it to your boss.
Sharing it with a colleague.
Telling your missions pastor.
Forwarding a post to a friend.
Even mentioning it to your child’s school.
It might feel small.
Just a conversation. Just a share.

But we’ve seen how those moments ripple.

One person tells another.
A new connection is made.
A door opens.

And somewhere down the line, that ripple becomes something real.

A child receives new clothes.
A safe place to sleep.
A warm meal.
A visit to a clinic when it’s needed most.

Not because of one big moment - but because someone chose to pass it on.

You don’t always have to give financially to make a difference.
Sometimes, simply sharing the story is the drop that starts the ripple.

Every drop matters 🤍

Look at that school pride! 🥹💛

Milele’s little ones are beaming on their way to class, and we are so, so happy for them. There is something incredibly special about seeing children feel proud, prepared and excited to learn.

They are needing a little more stationery to support their education, so if you feel called to bless the children at Milele Home, you can donate here: https://dias.asn.au/donate/

Every little bit helps them step into the classroom with confidence 🤍

“Why do you do charity work in Africa?” It’s a question I’m often asked.

I was first in Uganda through my work as a civil engineer. At the time, I didn’t go there with any intention of starting a charity or doing this kind of work. But while I was there, something shifted in me.

As I spent time in the communities, and especially with the children, I felt a deep sense of conviction - what I can only describe as a calling. For me, it felt like God was prompting me to respond to what I was seeing.

I understand that not everyone connects with that language, and that’s completely okay. Not everyone is motivated by faith - and it doesn’t always matter why we choose to help, as long as we do.

Over time, the way Droplets In A Stream has grown has felt purposeful. The connections we made with our partners didn’t feel accidental. We met people who were already doing everything they could to care for vulnerable children, often with very little support, in areas that simply weren’t being reached by other organisations.

What stood out to me most was the heart behind what they were doing - the sincerity, the sacrifice, the genuine love for the children in their care. In many ways, we’ve simply come alongside people who were already doing the work.

It felt right to walk with them. It felt like something we were meant to be part of.

We don’t have to do this work, but we’re grateful we get to play a small part. Over the years, our sense of calling has grown as we’ve seen the impact - not just in numbers, but in real lives.

Whether your motivation is faith, compassion, or simply a desire to make a difference, we’re so grateful to have you on this journey with us.

We understand that not everyone is always in a position to give financially, but you show up in so many meaningful ways - from sharing our posts to telling a friend.

We wanted to share a little update about Edah Joy - a little girl whose life has changed so much since arriving at Milele.

Edah came into care at a time when she wasn’t safe. Her parents were both living with severe mental health challenges and weren’t able to care for her. During difficult periods, they would walk long distances with Edah, sometimes sleeping outside in bushes.

When she arrived at Milele, she was undernourished and in poor health. Since then, everything has changed. At Milele, Edah has found what every child deserves - daily meals, a safe place to sleep, and people who care for her deeply.

She is now healthier, more settled, and beginning to experience the kind of childhood that was once out of reach. She plays freely with the other children and has started kindergarten this year.

She is doing well - and slowly, gently, finding her joy again. Milele has become her home. Her safe place.

Stories like Edah’s are only possible because of the support that surrounds Milele - people like you who make it possible for children to be cared for, protected, and given a chance to heal.

Thank you for being part of this. 🧡

At Droplets In A Stream, we don’t go into communities to “start” something - the work is already happening.

The people we partner with are already there - showing up every day, caring for vulnerable children, often with very little support.
They know the culture.
They know the language.
They know the children by name, by story, by heart.

They’re not outsiders.
They’re part of the community.

What stood out most was the heart behind the work - people already doing everything they could with so little. That’s what mattered.

So our role has never been to lead from the front.
It’s to come alongside.
To support, strengthen, and walk with those who are already doing the work.

Because real, lasting change doesn’t come from parachuting in.
It comes from empowering local people who are deeply invested in their own communities.

We don’t have all the answers.
But we know this - when you back the right people, in the right places, with the right support…
lives change.

And we’re so grateful to play a part in that.

In 2012, we met Peter Michael and his team at Kyampisi Childcare Ministries. After witnessing the enormity of the fight they had taken on, we knew we had to stand with them.

Today, we continue to work closely with KCM to protect Uganda’s most vulnerable children and educate communities about this modern form of ritual harm that must be stamped out forever.

If you feel led to learn more or support this work, please visit dias.asn.au 🤍

We also acknowledge that there are traditional healing practices in Uganda that do not harm children.
