Hope Children’s Foundation has an orphanage project established in
response to being, seeing and living with orphans in need but not
reading about them. It’s locally initiated with the aim of providing
Health care which includes treatment of opportunistic infections,
HIV/AID prevention and education, counseling and guidance, referrals and
psychosocial support for all the affected. Our Care and support program
entails proving food at home for the ill , school feeding, providing
clothing, beddings and constructing semi-permanent structures for
orphans and guardians without homes .Education we address formal primary
education with a mission to impact the lives of less privileged |

We have utilized the church land to set up a small farm for crop
growing and few gardening practices. These practices are done by the
pupils on Wednesday mornings as a daily school program. In order to
ensure availability of meals the school management decided that these
little ones should be taught how to grow their own food for survival. |

Besides being academic giants, our children are also very talented;
we have pupils good at Drama, Music and Dance. One Drake Ssekalige in
Primary six and Naiga Doreen are all good musicians with voices and
tones that will forever leave you amazed. One of our disabled children
is a good poet whose composition will leave you really happy.

| Advocate for children's rights |
|
At Hope we are optimistic about the
existence of a community in which children’s rights will be protected
and valued. We work and sensitize our communities towards this each day
of our activity.

| Youth Empowerment Schemes |
We have organized youth groups to pass our message of peace and hope
to them. This message includes violence against children, environmental
conservation through tree planting, HIV/AIDS awareness, prevention,
detection and treatment, spiritual mentoring, mental ability tests,
physo-social support, handling adolescent stages, sexual and
reproductive health issues.
Our leadership trainings include mentoring our young children right
from infancy to be leaders in fighting crime and any other social
misconduct. For example we spearheaded the Establishment of Kigoma
Community School Pathfinder club whose goal is to provide health
education and encourage volunteerism, in six secondary schools with
approximately 480 children. |
