Goal

Thousands of orphans are severely suffering and dying because of lack of adequate food and medical care in Uganda. Help us bring Operation Hope for Uganda to hundreds of orphans! This Fall, For the Martyrs will be traveling to Uganda to provide life saving resources, clothing, and toys to orphans under the care of Fr. Deus! 

Your donation will support bringing a life saving medical and food mission to orphans and impoverished people living in small villages in Uganda. The funds will be going to For the Martyrs who will partner with Fr. Ssekabira Deusdedit (Fr. Deus) to provide a free medical and food clinic in Masaka, Uganda. In addition to food and medicine, clothing, toys, and other basic necessities will be provided. 


About Fr. Deus: With the support of donors, Fr. Deus works to provide food, clothing, and education to orphans and poor families living in poverty in Uganda. 

 

About For the Martyrs: Founded by Gia Chacon, For the Martyrs is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that seeks to raise awareness about Christian Persecution, advocate for Religious Freedom, and provide aid to suffering Christians across the globe. In 2020, with the help of hundreds of donors, For the Martyrs was able to purchase a passenger van for Fr. Deus and his orphans which provides lifesaving transportation for the orphans daily.
