My story

Jackline's family has been rescued from the camps in Sudan. Father and mother are very poor. Jackline and her siblings didn't get enough food because there was no money for it. Now Jackline lives in the project with her father and mother and father and mother have a small task within the project that they earn a little money with. With a sponsor, Jackline can go to school and is provided with her food and clothing. (The date of birth is not known exactly, her age is guessed).

Jackline is supported by impact partner Iris Ministries Sudan/Oeganda

What a day looks like: In Uganda, the day starts early. Together they have breakfast with bread and tea, after which the children go to school. After school there is time to relax, play games and do homework. In the evening, all the children come together to eat and pray. Dinner usually consists of rice, beans, and vegetables. And once a week the children get chicken and once a week they get fish. On Wednesday afternoons and Friday evenings, the children come together for worship, teaching and prayer. Project information: The project in Uganda where your sponsor child is staying is part of Iris Ministries. This falls under the branch of Iris Ministries Mozambique, founded by Roland and Heidi Baker. Iris Ministries is now based in Uganda but originally started in Sudan in 2006. Because war broke out here and the situation was no longer safe for the children, all the children fled to Uganda (Luwero) under the leadership of Carolyn Figlioli (director) where they now officially live. Within the project, 135 children are under Carolyn's care. Together with 23 other caregivers, she ensures that the project keeps running. The older children go to boarding school, which is mandatory in Uganda. Here they stay internally, during the holidays they return to the children's home or visit family. Your support provides your sponsor child with daily food, education and school materials, housing and medical care, so that the children have a great future perspective and they can realize their dream.
