Kwagala Means Love

We are an NGO in Jinja, Uganda with a home for vulnerable children...

 

...most of whom lived on the streets, as we seek to build relationships and learn how to help empower their families.

 

KWAA-ga-la

...means  “love” in the local language of Luganda.

“This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us....  Dear friends let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth.” (1 John 3:16-18)

We are blown away by the support from @rchs_royals in Ottawa, ON. We’ve had a vision to come alongside Sabasi’s family for a while now - to help his mother start a small corner-store business in her village, proving basic daily necessities for the community. We are so excited to share that this project is complete and running steadily! RCHS, thank you for adopting this vision and helping it to become reality. #kwagala #kwagalameanslove #uganda #webale Happy Monday, friends! This week we welcomed Enderson into our home. He is 10 years old and was found by the local police after living on the street for some time. We are so grateful for our relationship with the local authorities here in Jinja who keep us involved with situations such as this. After getting Enderson cleaned up, fed and acquainted with everyone at Kwagala, we are now working on the steps to take to trace his family. Family-relationship building has been a work in progress from the beginning days of Kwagala, it's one of our main visions. It has been a bit of a bumpy road but of course 100% worth it. So excited to share that these 3 guys will be spending the holidays with their families. This is a huge step in the relationship-building process and we can't wait to see how they'll all grow! When we embrace the person that we were made to be, we can love people that others might not be able to reach!
Today is the day! This is the fifth year that RCHS has faithfully come alongside us for their Ugandan Mile fundraiser. Over the years they have become our greatest support system and our very good friends. Leading up to this event, the students Skype with the boys in our home on a weekly basis and it has been so beneficial for both sides to build relationships and learn new cultures. We are eternally grateful for our relationship with this school and excited to stay up all night and “walk a Ugandan mile!”
