my name is Nkolwa Fred from Uganda. I'm thrilled to share my story with you. As an orphan myself, I understand the pain and struggle of growing up without parental love and care.

My journey began when I lost my parents at a tender age. A kind old woman, who wasn't even related to me, took me in and raised me as her own. She supported me until I completed primary school, but unfortunately, she passed away when I was in high school, leaving me with no financial support to continue my education.

With no other options, I resorted to hustling on the streets to survive. But instead of giving up, I found purpose in helping others. I took in a few children who shared similar backgrounds, and we formed a small family. As more children joined us, I realized the need to establish a formal orphanage. Thus, Friends of Jesus Ministry was born!

As far we go children grow up reaching to different stages in life, some children have really grown up experiencing puberty stage whereby we need to expand our home through constructing different dormitory for the grown up children

And through this we have to obtain a piece of land where these dormitory will be raised .

Today, we have 40 children under our care, and I'm proud to be their guardian and father figure. However, providing for their basic needs - food, water, clothes, medication, and education - is a significant challenge.

I share my story with the hope of seeking support, solutions, and prayers from like-minded individuals. Your contribution, big or small, will make a significant difference in the lives of these precious children.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story. May God bless you abundantly for your kindness and generosity.✝️✝️
