Our Calling
Proverbs 19:17, “Whoever is kind to the poor lends to the LORD, and he will reward them for what they have done.”
Over half of the world’s children in developing countries (56%), just over one billion children, are suffering from one or more forms of severe deprivation of basic human need. Every second, a child in developing countries is deprived of even the minimum opportunities in life.
More specifically in Eastern Uganda, over ¾ of the general population are poor people in dire lack of resources to obtain the types of diet, participate in the activities, and have the living conditions and amenities which are customary or at least widely encouraged or approved in the society to which they belong. These people therefore lack the types of diet, clothing, housing, household facilities, educational, working, and social conditions, activities, and facilities to afford them a good standard of living.
However, this struggle on the margins of survival in Eastern Uganda has worst-hit the children. The situation is even more complicated since children can hardly be expected to have money; Children are particularly vulnerable to deprivation of their specific needs. They cannot be regarded as full economic agents exercising consumer sovereignty: they are not able to secure their own income/resources until a certain age and they are not sovereign in making consumption decisions. Moreover, for the fulfilment of their basic needs, they have to rely more than adults on the production of goods and services by public authorities (especially in areas of health and nutrition, but also in public provisions and services). These children are deprived in either education, health, nutrition, water, sanitation, shelter, information, income, or any other fundamental rights.
