Bweya Children’s Home

The first project and Ugandan orphanage supported by Promise International, the Bweya Children’s Home (BCH) is located eight miles from the capital city of Kampala in the village of Bweya. It was founded in 1968, by Mr. Christopher and Mrs. Irene Mukasa. Although Mrs. Mukasa recently passed to be with our Lord, Mr. Mukasa continues to direct its operations, along with the help of Moses Ssebaggala, the homes administrator.   Most of the children it serves are destitute, victims of continuous civil strife, and orphaned as a result of the AIDS epidemic.

THEY ARE IN DIRE NEED OF FOOD, IMPROVED HOUSING, AND MEDICAL CARE. BCH is dedicated to providing a quality life, and hope, to numerous at-risk children This orphanage currently serves as home to 65 children, ages 1 to 18. The Mukasa’s have provided a true home to the abandoned girls and boys who have entered its doors. From humble beginnings, they have unselfishly and tirelessly cared for these needy children, most of whom have known no other parents.

The Bweya Childrens Home lacks sufficient funds to offer anything beyond basic food and shelter for its residents. Contributions are desperately needed to provide nutrition for healthy development and more suitable housing for these precious children

How Promise International Helps:

With partial support from Promise International since 1997, we have helped to support the Home by helping to increase the number of orphans it serves, upgrade its facilities, acquire land, and provide playground equipment. However, the buildings are in dire need of repairs, furniture, and bedding.

Promise International is eligible to accept gifts from your estate plan.
