Meet the children of Project Serah who are waiting for a sponsor to help them grow, learn, and thrive.
Many of these children have spent their earliest years alongside their parents in prison, with no safe place to call home. In Uganda, when parents are incarcerated and there is no one else to care for their children, the children often end up living in prison with them. Project Serah steps in to offer these vulnerable children a loving home, access to education, healthcare, and the opportunity to grow up in a nurturing environment. By becoming a sponsor, you can help break the cycle of confinement and offer them a real chance at a better life.

Masembe Robert had always dreamed of becoming a doctor. The seed of that dream was planted the day his mother fell ill. He was only seven then, sitting quietly by her bedside, watching helplessly as her fever raged. The village clinic was far, and the only nurse came once a week. By the time help arrived, it was too late. From that day, Robert promised himself that no one in Nawansenke would have to suffer alone again.
Even though I've had some tough times, I dream about being a pilot one day. I love looking at the sky and thinking about flying high above the clouds. To me, flying means being free and leaving all the sad things behind. I like to imagine that I'm in control in the cockpit, guiding the plane far and wide, and making sure everyone gets to where they're going safely.
I want to be a symbol of hope, to show people that you can do great things no matter where you come from. I dream about traveling, discovering new places, and the happiness that comes from overcoming challenges. I know that even though things have been hard, I have the power to rise high.

Kabalo dreams of becoming an engineer.
He doesn’t know when the dream began, but he remembers watching his father work on their small mud house, patching up the walls with whatever materials he could find. He remembers the frustration in his father’s eyes whenever the rain washed away their hard work. If only the walls were stronger… If only the house could stand forever…
