Someone Cares Africa

The orphanage Christian ministry Someone Cares Africa was founded by Marich able Chemonges. It was recognized Uganda’s government as an NGO (non-governmental organization) since 2019.  

Marich was born in 1994. His father passed away in 1998, his mother in 2000. He has no memories of them. He worked any job he could to raise himself and his younger brother and sister. His parents’ families wanted nothing to do with them. He worked hard to afford learning English and writing in school. His life goal is to help the many other orphans of the rural East Ugandan community he’s from have a less difficult childhood experience than himself and his siblings.

Through his persistent effort, grassroots-style donations provide 200 orphans aged 2-16 basic human rights such as water, shelter, food, and education when financially possible. About 150 trusted low-income widows/elders opened their homes to the Kapchorwa community’s orphans. Through Someone Cares Africa, they occasionally receive emergency rations and aid when possible.

This is a spectacular undertaking. However, Marich and his team of 10 (cooks, teachers, caretakers) cannot do it without us. It’s difficult at times but we are honored to provide basic human rights for impoverished children. It’s worth it, but we need help.

Words inadequately describe our depth of appreciation for any contribution to this cause. Even gifts which are relatively modest go a long way at ~$0.30/meal. Build something which lasts with us!
