WORLD IMPACT NETWORK PARTNERS WITH CHRISTIAN LIFE MINISTRIES TO BRING THE HOPE OF A NEW LIFE TO THE ORPHANS OF NORTHERN UGANDA

World Impact Network’s philosophy has always been to support nationals working in developing nations. They are the best people for the job! Erecting our own flags and attempting to impose our own suppositions on the frailties of a war torn, aids ravaged people would be an imposition at best. Nationals who understand their own people and have a heart to help their own communities should be supported in their efforts by outsiders. One of the ways World Impact Network has helped in Uganda over the last several years has been in the area of income generating skill development. Over 250 women were trained in different communities many of whom have now started their own businesses and are employing others. This year World Impact Network will step up its efforts to help Pastors Jackson and Eve Senyonga in their efforts to clutch as many children out of the despicable conditions in refugee camps as possible. They will then be introduced into a safe loving caring environment where they can be spiritually, emotionally, physically restored and educated.

The children from these refugee camps have at a tender age, already experienced the ravages of war and the pandemic of aids. This has brought them a substantial amount of suffering, heartache, loss and emotional devastation. They deserve the hope of a new life.

The Orphan sponsorship program brings them this hope. It takes a $300 sponsorship to provide a place at the orphanage, food, clothing, schooling, and basic medical care. In addition these orphans will be raised in a Christian environment. Those with HIV/AIDS will require some additional funding.
