In January of 2023, Open Hearts for Orphans became a proud CarePortal Community Champion in Palm Beach County, Florida. We are thankful to provide basic needs for desperate foster & adoptive families in our own backyard.

Funding HOPE - Basic Needs

Uganda is home to over 20 million children, many of whom are orphaned, abandoned or vulnerable. The vast majority of Ugandans live in rural areas  and earn their living from subsistence agriculture, with half the population living on less than $1 per day. The country’s health  indicators are among the lowest in Africa, with almost 7% of children passing away before their fifth birthday. Due to a lack of resources and  access to health care, many children in Uganda suffer for years with  treatable medical conditions, which often worsen over time. Children who  are abandoned or orphaned often end up in crowded orphanages or living  on the streets. 


Our mission is to protect those children and keep families together as "orphan prevention." With trusted partners on the ground, we serve vulnerable children by meeting their basic needs, such as clothing, food, and shelter and we provide the means for medical intervention if necessary.

Our Partners in Orphan Care - Uganda

Samuel

Little Samuel in Uganda was malnourished and needed urgent medical cared and nutritional intervention. His improvement, in a matter of months, has been miraculous.

Baby Farouk

Baby Farouk was born to a young mother who is mentally disabled. They are in the care of a "granny" so he can continue to be with his mother. We stepped to provide basic needs because they had nothing. We've provided for their access to a nutrition program at the local hospital and showered them with clothing, diapers,

Beds & Bedding for families

    Douglas & Ivan

    When we learned these abandoned boys were living alone in a house that was crumbling, we rallied to change their lives. Within six months, a new house has been built including a latrine, kitchen, solar panels, rainwater catch system, and fully furnished.  They now have HOPE - and a HOME.

    Formula & Nutrition

      Ronald's Girls

      Ronald  in Uganda took his life in 2020 under the stress of the pandemic and  left his four daughters behind. We provided everything needed to move them in with their Grandma.  We continued to provide food and clothing as needed.

      Joan & Susan

      These girls were abandoned and fortunate to be living with their Aunt who has disabilities. We bought her a wheelchair and provided for a new house since theirs was crumbling and unsafe. Within six months, a new house was built including a latrine, kitchen, solar panels, rainwater catch system, and fully furnished.  

      Aid in desperate situations

      Food, basic necessities, and a new roof will be provided for this disabled father and his children.  Rain caused the roof of their home to cave in, and as a  result they have been sleeping in this kitchen area  so they can at least stay out of the  rain.

      Norah and her family

      Baby Dagu has hydrocephalus and we provided for an emergency procedure to drain fluid from his head in 2020. We also supplied basic needs for the family. He is doing well now! In spring 2021, we raised funds to build them a new home and 3 of the kids are back in school! Norah is such a hardworking mama.

      Tuition Assistance

      Since 2022, we have covered tuition for over 100 vulnerable children in Uganda. When they go to school, they receive all the necessary supplies to take with them, including bedding. They receive uniforms and meals on a regular basis and have a roof over their heads.

      Sylvia, Janet, and Dickson

      These siblings were found in 2024. Their parents are deceased. The girls had dropped out of school years ago and preferred to learn a trade, so we funded seamstress training, sewing machines, and a space in their fully-furnished brand new home to sell their creations! Here's to life-changing support!

      Maria & Olivia and their siblings

      These children were discovered in Uganda in 2021  - their parents had died in 2020, and the eldest two, Maria and Olivia (twins) were raising their five younger siblings - on their own. We provided for their basic needs and funded a new HOME, which they've now moved into!

      Jameo family

      Their father passed away and their mother struggles with providing for the children. The daughter, Bashira, who was under medical care for  hydrocephalus at the CURE Hospital in Uganda, unexpectedly passed away in 2021. She was 9 years old. We covered the hospital and funeral expenses that her mom was unable to pay.
