BORN LIKE OTHERS – UGANDA

ORPHAN CRISIS IN UGANDA

Orphan Crisis in Uganda

Life is extremely difficult for children who have been orphaned in Uganda. Extreme poverty, high rates of malaria and AIDS, and the country's ongoing recovery from conflict have left an estimated 3.5 million children orphaned. These children often face discrimination, poverty, and enormous risks, including abandonment, trafficking, child labor, and abuse.

Born Like Others provides immediate relief and hope, serving as a safe home for vulnerable children who would otherwise be alone.

Our Holistic Care

Born Like Others was founded in 2011 by Robert Twinomujun, with the mission of caring for Uganda's most vulnerable children and youth, registered as "Let's Serve Christ Ministries." The program provides housing, food, clothing, education, and medical care—a holistic approach that focuses on empowering every child.

Staff and volunteers also nurture talents and confidence, encouraging music, art, and community engagement so each child can thrive.
