How do we help?
His Heart For Africa’s mission is to share the love of Christ by providing education for children and care for the elderly in Jinja, Uganda.
No schooling in Uganda is free. Families pay for everything. No mom should ever have to make the choice between feeding her child and sending her child to school. His Heart For Africa comes alongside moms and grandmas who are taking care of their children to the best of their abilities. These women work hard but don't make enough money to provide a roof over their heads, food, and an education. We help alleviate some of this difficulty by providing the school and lunch fees as well as school supplies, so a child is fully prepared to receive an education.
There is also a need to care for the elderly. Hospice, nursing homes, and assisted living do not exist here. Relying on your children or neighbors is the only way that you will be taken care of as you get older and near the end of your life.
