Child`s Destiny of Hope CDHope
CDHope In 2012, CDHope opened a new nursery school in Chawolo. The school offers less fortunate village children the chance to start off with a good Christian foundation. In 2013 we managed to open the first 2 classes of a secondary school in Chawolo. We are raising funds in order to be able to build new classrooms in 2014 so the students will be able to finish secondary school with a diploma. The Sponsor Program The sponsor program enables: Underprivileged village children to attend school Orphaned children to find a home with CDHope Other initiatives (construction and furnishing of the secondary school, village activities, a water well and support of the Omalla family and in the future a primary school) Questions?

Our goal is to foster their hope in a future with a purpose. We are working towards this in our children’s home, in the nursery (preschool), as well as in the church and community of the East-Ugandan village of Chawolo. And soon… in our secondary school! You can make a difference in the lives of orphans in Africa! V201312_1EN Background Approximately 1.9 million Ugandan children have lost one or both parents. Child’s Destiny of Hope is active in a remote area of Eastern Uganda, offering care, love, protection, food, education, health care and a roof over their heads to vulnerable children and their families. The Orphanage Child’s Destiny of Hope started up an orphanage in Chawolo. It is currently home to 7 children who are or have been attending a good primary school in the village. A few of the children completed their primary schooling in 2011 and moved to secondary school in 2012. Local staff help run the orphanage. These staff members provide daily care and guidance to the children and help with different tasks, from the CDHope children homework to chores in and around the house, as well as tending the vegetable garden which provides the home with various fresh food items. Tim and Wilma Omalla have been managing the orphanage since its start in July 2007. CDHope is dedicated to extending help to more and more children. There is space available in the children’s home and in the nursery. Will you help one of the children on the waiting list? The Omalla Family Tim, from Uganda, and Wilma, from The Netherlands, met while working together in an Ugandan orphanage. After getting married, they lived and worked in the Netherlands and cultivated the dream of returning to Uganda and bringing change into the lives of children who are without hope, love or security. In 2007, they moved to Uganda with their two sons, Eugene and Jaimie, to fulfil this dream. They went straight to work and the scope of their work keeps on expanding. They are currently responsible for the orphanage, the nursery and the sponsor program that allows underprivileged children from the village to attend a smaller, more personalized primary school. Tim and Wilma are also actively involved in the local community and local church life. The afternoon program that they organize is attended by 250 children each week. The children learn about Bible stories and they are encouraged to participate actively in crafts, games and sports like football and netball. School In Uganda, children often attend school at a later age and their attendance may be irregular. Chawolo is no exception. When the class consists of one hundred children, personal attention and quality teaching are not feasible, and some children become discouraged and leave school early, forfeiting their chances for a better future and following in the footsteps of their parents’ poverty.
