Susmita*, a young survivor raised in our orphan home, has been facing family rejection over her faith, but she just enrolled in college thanks to your scholarship boost, bringing her lots of new hope and courage. She is majoring in Hotel Management.

🇺🇬 Uganda: Fresh Start After Fire

The girls’ dorm, recently devastated by fire, is fully renovated with brand-new beds. The girls are safe, smiling, and sleeping soundly again!
