Reaching a Hand Children's Ministry and Orphanage is rejoicing that they now have two water tanks collecting rainwater from the roof in addition to a connection to national water. They of course boil all water used for drinking. The water tanks are a tremendous, long hoped for breakthrough after years of fetching water from unreliable wells and brooks. The orphanage got connected to national water in October, 2023, but still had to fetch water from distant unreliable sources when water outages occurred. Now with the tanks for backup, their water supply is at last secure.
Ongoing regular support for operational expenses is still greatly needed. Every donation helps and will make a significant impact.

Pastor Henry and the children are celebrating the arrival of two 5,000 liter water tanks this week which will will insure they have water during periods of water outage. We are deeply grateful for the contributions that made this possible. Ongoing contributions to meet the operating expenses of the orphanage are vitally needed.

75 boys and girls are currently living in the orphanage home and another 20 are receiving help from their homes The ministry provides food, shelter, medication, clothing, and help for education and spiritual growth. Pastor Henry has four salaried employees: a cook, a night security person, a boys warden and a girls matron. Total average monthly expenses for food, salaries, rent, water, electricity, education costs and medical needs is about $2,000. Every donation of any size helps and is greatly appreciated! Living conditions in Uganda are austere, but at least these 95 children are receiving shelter, sustenance and loving godly care. Whatever help you may choose to give will be gratefully received and responsibly used for this important mission.

Pastor Henry Lubega, founder and director of Reaching a Hand Children's Ministry and Orphanage (RHCMO) in Mityana, Uganda, is caring for eighty-five  boys and girls living in the orphanage home and approximately another forty who are receiving help from their homes. Pastor Lubega established this orphanage in 2012, and registered it officially in 2014, to reach out to needy children in their local communities, including children infected with /AIDS, children with disabilities, and children abandoned by their parents. The ministry provides food, shelter, medication, clothing, education fees, scholastic materials, and help for spiritual growth. As of July 19, 2023, the Orphanage is now connected to city water, no longer dependent on distant unreliable wells! RHCMO depends upon regular ongoing donations to meet operating expenses, and is currently in great need of more participating donors. Contributions of any size will help, and will be greatly appreciated.

We’re thankful to God that the orphanage is now connected to city water, no longer dependent on distant unreliable wells!

Thanks to all who have contributed! Director Henry Lubega writes that in addition to the regular support, the orphanage is in need of a water tank: "We have a serious problem of clean drinking water. These days we have heavy rains. The mud well we've been forced to use is causing typhoid. If we can get a water tank to collect rain water, that can be used for only drinking it can help us very well. So the request is for a water tank. The cost for a tank of the size needed is $500."
