Nabawesi Valaria dreams to be a nurse.She has always admired the nurses she saw at the small village clinic. Dressed in their crisp white uniforms, they moved with confidence, their hands gentle as they treated the sick. Whenever she visited the clinic with her grandmother, she watched in fascination as they worked, listening to their soothing voices as they comforted patients. She knew, deep in her heart, that one day, she wanted to be like them. At school, Valaria loves science. She is curious about how the body workes, how medicine heales wounds, and how simple things like clean water and food can prevent sickness.

My story

Nabawesi Valaria had always been a quiet, observant child. She loved to sit under the big mango tree near her home, watching the birds hop from branch to branch, listening to the rustling leaves in the afternoon wind. But life had changed suddenly for her. After losing her parents, she had to move in with her grandmother, a kind but firm woman who lived in a small village surrounded by green fields and rolling hills. Her grandmother’s house was simple, made of mud walls and a thatched roof, but it was filled with warmth and the smell of freshly cooked food.

Why Valaria needs our help

Valaria is a bright and hardworking student, but financial struggles make it difficult for her to stay in school. School fees, uniforms, books, and other learning materials are costly, and her grandmother, who is her sole guardian, struggles to provide for her needs. Without financial assistance, Valaria risks missing out on the education she needs to become a nurse.

Valaria is supported by impact partner Serah

Our childcare provides shelter for vulnerable homeless children who have been orphaned due to natural circumstances, such as the death of one or both parents, as well as poverty-related issues that cause despair in parents, causing them to make drastic choices that leave many of these children vulnerable. Some children are rejected by their families because of minor body abnormalities and treatable medical conditions. Others are left on the streets of the capital Kampala, where they risk a lot to make a living. Because every child is precious to God. We cannot sit back and watch these children suffer alone. Still, we can do something to restore their priceless lives and give them hope for the future. As a childcare facility, we provide a home for our children after they are approved by the government agency based on the child's status or condition. He or she is initiated into our family situation, from where they find a sense of belonging. Our mother, who happens to be a widow, can take care of the child together with other siblings he or she finds in the house and together they form a family. We emphasize that our children are formed and raised in a family institute. Because this is a way in which right and appropriate standards of life are instilled. We provide them with quality education, food, health and medicine, clothing, and above all, divine principles. LUF believes that when we empower our children or our society as a whole, we provide a great platform for great African leaders who will one day empower the next generation of Africa and the entire world as a whole.
