How we help and hope to grow

Care that reaches everyday life.

128 families in Wakiso District need your help. Children are our main focus, alongside women who need safety and support. With God’s grace, every act of care can help us reach one more home.

Children are at the heart of our care

14 orphaned children and 8 women are currently at OUR CRY CENTER.

The children depend on daily food, medication when needed, education, safe shelter, clothes, and steady love. We pray God will make a way for us to care for them well and create room for more.

“God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” Psalm 46:1 · KJV

Why we are here

It began with a choice to care.

In 2021, after COVID-19, Kisembo Mathew and Naggujja Sharon saw children going hungry and missing school—their chance at a brighter future. They also saw mothers facing violence. They could not look away. They chose to care—and gathered a team with the same heart.

OUR CRY CENTER is growing from that promise: a home of compassion where women can feel safe, children are loved, and no one has to cry alone. Our faith teaches us that care is a calling we live out together.

“Bear ye one another’s burdens.” Galatians 6:2 · KJV

Moments from our community

Everyday moments hold possibility.

These photos were shared by our team. Their captions speak to the care we believe every child deserves; we do not attach private histories or unverified outcomes to the children pictured.

A vision we carry in faith

With God’s grace, we pray for room to welcome more.

We hope one day to secure bigger land, create more space, and help more women and children feel at home. We trust that every step toward that vision begins with compassion, prayer, and people walking together.
