Africa's children are crying out for help. There are an estimated 50 million orphans in Africa with about 15 million being AIDS orphans. Uganda alone has 2.5 million orphans, about half caused by their parents dying from AIDS. Moreover, children are simply abandoned at hospitals or in other places by parents who cannot care for them. While the need is overwhelming, we can make a difference.

A local village child looks on while the Coxes survey the land and discuss plans for the children's village. Within minutes after coming to the site, the Coxes were surrounded by six children. They were curious about the visit, especially seeing a "muzungu" (white person). After talking with the children, the Coxes learned that several of them were orphans. All of them were barefoot and some only had what amounted to rags as clothes. By assisting Bread of Life African Ministries, you can help alleviate the suffering of children in Uganda.

Keirungi Children's Village is home to abandoned and orphaned children who have no one to care for them. On several acres of donated land in a small village called Nyamiyaga, located four miles outside of Kabale, a small rural town in southwest Uganda, BOLAM is building its first children's homes. Each home accommodates up to ten children and a housemother or house parents.

Keirungi is a place of new beginnings for children whose future today is only filled with darkness, despair, and suffering.
