At 62 years old, Sarah Nakiyaga faces life with remarkable courage.

Living with a disability, high blood pressure, and the responsibility of caring for two of her great-grandchildren, Sarah's journey has not been easy. When she contracted COVID-19, ROTOM stood beside her, providing care and support during one of the most difficult seasons of her life.

Today, thanks to generous supporters, Sarah receives medication, health education, and the encouragement she needs to keep going. Despite the challenges she faces daily, she continues to greet everyone with a bright smile and a thankful heart.

"ROTOM took care of me, and I am forever grateful," Sarah says.

Old age comes with many challenges. As the body grows weaker, even simple daily tasks become difficult, leaving many older persons unable to provide for themselves or their households.

At ROTOM, your support helps restore dignity and hope to vulnerable seniors through simple but life-changing gifts such as laundry soap, mosquito nets, and food supplies. What may seem small to us becomes a source of comfort, protection, and relief to an elderly person in need.

To our faithful donors, thank you for continuing to stand with Uganda’s elderly. And to those looking to make a difference, this is your opportunity to touch a life with compassion and love.

Together, we can ensure that older persons live dignified and fulfilled lives.

A heartfelt thank you to Mark and Kathy for spending a week with us at ROTOM Uganda.

From sharing fellowship with our seniors and interacting with our ROTOM school students to visiting families in their homes, your presence, love, and compassion were a true reflection of Christ’s heart. Thank you for taking the time to see the work God is doing through ROTOM and for being part of the lives being transformed every day.

“We came to Uganda to see ROTOM. We left having been seen by it.”

Your visit was a blessing and an encouragement to us all. May God continue to bless you abundantly.

Loneliness is one of the heaviest burdens of old age. When left unaddressed, it quietly chips away at both the mind and body, robbing older persons of their joy, health, and sense of purpose.

But through your continued support, ROTOM is helping change that.

Through the ROTOM Seniors’ Fellowships, older persons receive far more than companionship. They find reasons to laugh, share their stories, and feel seen, valued, and loved. They leave each gathering standing a little taller and feeling a little lighter, reminded that they are not forgotten.

None of this would be possible without you. Every smile shared, every friendship formed, and every life lived with greater dignity and fulfillment carries the impact of your generosity.

ROTOM is deeply grateful for your compassionate heart and unwavering support.

Working with vulnerable older persons has led ROTOM to innovate practical, compassionate solutions to the challenges they face.
One such solution is our Village Outreach Centers (VOCs), safe community spaces where older persons gather for fellowship and connection. For some, these centers also serve as full-time care homes.
We provide residential care for seniors who:
* Need constant support due to advanced age and cannot receive it at home
* Require a safe place to recover before returning home

Currently, we operate three VOCs in Mukono District, providing full-time care to 20 vulnerable older persons, supported by trained caregivers.

Many seniors in Uganda need full-time care but cannot access existing facilities due to high costs and limited availability.

By building care centers within their own communities, we ensure they remain connected, valued, and supported.

Partner with us to bring care and dignity closer to vulnerable and isolated older persons by supporting our Village Outreach Centre initiative.
