Our Vision
To create a self-sustaining environment where orphaned and vulnerable children in Uganda can experience the exceeding love of Jesus Christ and the joy and support of a family, with respect, safety, hope and an opportunity to realize their God given potential.
Our Mission
To exercise the love of Jesus Christ and change lives in Uganda by giving the most vulnerable children a family, a home, and an education in an environment that is self-sustaining. We build families for children in need, help them shape their own futures and share in the development of their communities.
Family is one of the very best and most important things in life; the Bible shows us that God desired for all of us to be nurtured in a family, both a physical family (our home) and a spiritual family (our church). Orphans and vulnerable children are in most cases deprived of the opportunity to grow in a family where they can have siblings, be discipled and trained as part of a society.
The physical family is the most important building block to human society, and as such, it should be nurtured and protected.
We provide a family, holistic care to orphaned and vulnerable children so that we can create an enabling environment for them to flourish and become the people that God created them to be. In the Sanyuka family, the love, life and character of Jesus Christ is the central focus as we strive to model Christ and provide holistic care to His dear children.
