Orphan Care
2,500,000 orphans struggle to survive in Uganda
20% of children aged 6-17 are orphans
Half of these lost parents to HIV/AIDS
No other nation has a higher percent orphaned by AIDS
The LRA left many others parentless
Who will care for them?
There is no doubt of God's deep compassion for orphans. There also is no doubt that Uganda has many, many orphans. They need help and God has called us to care for them.
What are we doing to help?
Orphan HomesOrphan care will be provided for up to 300 children at a time through the construction of 35 homes,
each housing 8-10 orphans. Currently, nine homes are filled with children. Ugandans are employed to serve as House Parents in a family environment for each home. Widows fulfill this role in 90% of the currently occupied homes, allowing Restoration Gateway (RG) to provide for widows as well. All material and health needs are provided for the children.School
Restoration Gateway's primary school, called "Oaks of Righteousness," houses twelve classrooms for the orphans. The children also have a gymnasium/multipurpose building, playground and soccer field. For more information about the school, click here.
