So he was inspired to form this charity ministry aiming to give a hand to the orphans and needy , through sharing the gospel, supporting kids who were unable to attend school , feeding the poor and the needy, many have given their lives to Jesus as Lord and Savior,
Hope for Joy was initially founded by Ebenezer Charity Club an initiative started by a group of students from Entebbe to assist their fellow students who were not able to attend school and those who had dropped out of school. It was started in 2009 committed to demonstrating Jesus’ love by providing food stuffs, Clothing, counseling, and school supplies. In 2012 it was observed that the number of vulnerable children was at a higher increase due to the HIV/ AIDS problem and many had lost hope for the future, there was a need to restore back hope so we decided to extend the ministry to different communities through Hope for Joy community Outreach and Orphan sponsorship program.
In this outreach we provide food, clothes, counseling, sharing the gospel, educational materials, medication and school fees. There are well over 2 million orphans in the African country of Uganda, largely as a result of HIV AIDS. Most of these orphans live with a grandparent or other relative, but some of them have no one able to care for them. Hope for Joy Foundation was established specifically to bring back hope and provide loving care to some of these orphaned and abandoned children, and currently hope for joy is supporting 52 children between the ages of 6 and 17 from different villages of the country.
