Meeting Mr Richard, his wife Rose, and their beautiful children was one of the highlights of my time in Jira, Uganda. The work they are doing and the facilities they are establishing are really something to be proud of. Anyone getting the opportunity to volunteer at, or even donate to, their the home Ministry will truly be blessed with the wonderful knowledge that they are in the capable hands and care of two people who are making a profoundly positive impact by empowering the children in their care to succeed in life.
