In preparation of celebrating Mother’s Day tomorrow, we’d like to share the story of Annet, a selfless, single-mother of six.
Learn how Annet fed children at Nabukalu CarePoint for a month with her own resources, how her daughter’s mysterious illness led her to embrace God, how she has succeeded in her work in agriculture, and how she is a valuable resource to the Nabukalu community!
Stories of three Ugandans who were struggling to find hope, but after attending the Uganda Leadership Development Program are now leading their communities with strength, grit, and compassion.

I may be a little biased towards Children’s HopeChest in Uganda, but these people get the message and purpose of Children’s HopeChest. They’re not simply maintaining the HopeChest model, they’re going above and beyond to develop and create new sustainable programs that will make an impact in these communities for a lifetime.
Hope is why we, as God’s people, serve. It’s why we, at Children’s HopeChest, go. Not to meet physical needs and leave, never to return again. We go to build relationship.
Point Community Church and the people of Kaberamadio, Uganda have become a family. A family brought together because of His love, sharing in His provision and finding belonging, beauty, and hope in His promise.
I’ve sponsored the same child through Children’s HopeChest for almost seven years. He’ll be a grown man in a few more. Literally, I have watched him grow up through pictures from the other side of the world.
