Donate to Save Lives of Ugandan Orphans

Donation protected
In the heart of Uganda, Bright Star Children Care Center stands as a beacon of hope for over 35 children who have known hardship and loss. Founded by Bayo Emmanuel, this sanctuary has transformed lives, offering shelter, education, and a future to those who once had none.

But now, this light is flickering.

Recent cuts to USAID funding have left Bright Star—and many similar organizations—struggling to meet the basic needs of these children. Without consistent access to medications, nutritious food, and healthcare, the progress we’ve made together is at risk.

These children are more than just survivors; they are resilient, hopeful, and full of potential. With your support, we can ensure they continue to thrive.

In a recent ABC News interview, Bayo Emmanuel shared the heartbreaking story of 14-year-old Migande Andrew - pictured below- who passed away due to a lack of access to HIV medication after USAID funding cuts. Bayo expressed the dire situation, stating that without support, the orphanage cannot afford the necessary treatments.
