The first steps for our street children project in Iganga, Uganda, have already been taken, thanks to the support of many generous people! We have already achieved so much. Talks are ongoing with local traders to create an essential foundation for the project. The goal is to use food that is close to its expiration date to support a soup kitchen that will provide the children with a warm meal 1-2 times a week.

The opening of the center is approaching, but we urgently need 10-15 triple bunk beds for the tent shelter, as well as mattresses, blankets, and mosquito nets.

These simple yet crucial items are the key to giving the children not just a place to sleep but also a sense of security and belonging. Every child deserves a place where they can feel safe and hold on to hope for a better future.

This is Hannigton, and he has received what is likely the greatest Christmas gift of his life: a life-saving heart surgery! ❤🙏🎄✨

Our heartfelt thanks go to the organization BILD hilft e.V. "Ein Herz für Kinder", which made this life-changing operation possible.

This brave little boy was born with a large hole in his heart. He struggled to breathe, and his family abandoned him. Cate Cathy from the House of Hope Children’s House in Masaka, Uganda, took him in with love and care.

Last week, after many requests and a long wait, a miracle happened: Through a complex surgery, the hole in his heart was successfully closed. Without this operation, his life expectancy would have been very low. Now, Hannigton has a real chance at a healthy, happy life.

Special thanks to Manuel Pohl and the ICF Church Bielefeld, whose generous donation has made the necessary aftercare possible. Together with the Hilfswerk Aucta e.V., we are deeply grateful to God for this incredible Christmas miracle. 🙏🙏🙏

It shows the greatness of God’s love and how He brings people together to make the impossible possible. The soon-to-be 3-year-old Hannigton will carry this gift in his heart forever – quite literally. ❤

If you would like to support Hannigton on his life’s journey, please get in touch with us. Together, we can achieve even more! ❤🙏This is Hannigton, and he has received what is likely the greatest Christmas gift of his life: a life-saving heart surgery! ❤🙏🎄✨

Sometimes, it’s the big gestures that give small dreams a future. 💛 We would like to sincerely thank cinetixx.de for their generous tent donation, bringing us one step closer to our goal: creating a safe drop-in center for street children.

Yesterday, the big moment finally arrived – the tent was delivered! It’s a symbol of hope and a space meant to provide these children with protection and a sense of normalcy. Unfortunately, there was a minor issue during assembly: the roof frame wasn’t installed correctly – for a length of 10 meters, there’s currently only one crossbar in the middle. This could cause water to pool on the tarp, potentially damaging the tent over time.

We’re in close contact with the supplier to resolve this issue as quickly as possible. The center will soon become a place of new beginnings for many children. A second tent is to be added later to accommodate girls at risk.

Thank you to cinetixx.de and everyone who supports us on this journey! Together, we can achieve great things. 💛

At Pastor Jacob's site, the Okoa Street Children Center is taking shape, with each stone laid symbolizing hope.

The new wash and toilet room is coming together—a space that provides not only hygiene but also restores dignity. For the children, this place means more than just clean water and safety; it marks the beginning of a future where they feel respected and valued. This is a place that shows them they are not forgotten, and that their lives matter. Step by step, we are laying the foundation for their future—a small but significant step toward a better world.

The project is funded solely by your donations. Without this support, none of this would be possible.

Every donation, big or small, is a building block of this project and a gift that provides the children with a safe space and the chance for a better life. Together, we are not just creating a center; we are building a future full of hope for the street children in Iganga, Uganda.
