Our Goals
50 acres in Kalemie has been purchased with the intent to establish farm land, a clinic, school, orphanage, and a Ubuntu Center to establish a place for dialogue and conflict resolution. The goal of this organization is to engage in a holistic mission and the emancipation of the marginalized and oppressed communities. We want to alleviate poverty with education and fight against systemic exploitation and human rights violations.

ORPHANAGEMany children have been misplaced without any family to help guide and take care of them. This can lead to a vicious cycle of poverty and illnesses that is harder to reverse. |
EducationEducation is power and the ability to change your path. We hope to provide this enrichment with wellness programs, sexual education to prevent teen pregnancies, as well as, fostering micro-programs and grassroots initiatives. |
Our children are suffering but we're changing that.
Now let's WORKOur Hope
We believe that poverty is not generic or genetic. It can be redressed and addressed, as well as, cured by an ethical commitment of hard hard work. Because poverty is not a culture, it can be overcome. According to Samuel Sikapizye "Breaking the cycle of poverty means more than meeting basic needs, like food and shelter. Poverty is not only physical, but also, a mental, emotional and spiritual draining. Poverty creates a crushing sense of inadequacy and hopelessness."

Our experience in the ministry and our scholarly education in theology have prepared us to respond to the call of our Savior with a "Yes Lord, here I am, send me!" (Isaiah 6) As of December 31, 2017, the Democratic Republic of Congo had the largest displaced population in Africa with more than 4.49 million internally displaced persons, including 2.7 million children. Since January 2017, every hour of every day, nearly 50 Congolese families have been forced to flee.
