Who We Are

New Hope Children’s Centre is a home to over 170 children with those being sponsored in secondary. This children’s centre is aimed at providing education, physical, moral and spiritual care to the needy orphans and neglected children so as to bring up a new generation of Children out of ignorance, poverty and who will be of benefit to any given society of the world.

New Hope Children’s Centre through our continuous prayers has been so fortunate to be supported by various different individuals and groups whom we have referred to as the Great Friends of New Hope Children’s centre. We are totally thankful to all of them for helping us get thus far and YOU are also kindly invited to join us towards this noble cause.

Journal

After the many years of hoping and praying with our needy children, the good Lord connected us to us to SUUBI MINISTRIES who have continued sponsoring our needy children who pass their National Primary Leaving Exams to Secondary level and since 2012; so far, 80 have been sponsored from senior one to Senior six. Before God answered our prayer, our pupils who had done and passed their National Primary Leaving Exams couldn’t join to secondary as they lacked tuition to take them to the next level of Education but instead dropped from school just after their completion their very first level of Education.

How the centre begun

Mr. Mugendawala Godfrey who is a teacher by profession and formerly an employee of various government schools brought up, in his home, several orphans and destitute children together with his children. He later on left employment and went into full-time ministry, as volunteers in service of the Most High God. The centre was legally registered on 19th October 2007 with Mr. Mugendawala Godfrey as the Executive directors of the centre with well constituted board of directors.
