Andaba Integrated Ministries (Formerly His Hope Uganda) began with nine children and a young woman with a desire to make a difference in the lives of Ugandans in 2009. Out of that simple beginning has grown an organization that now sponsors around 100+ children in schools in the Jinja District and provides support through a number of initiatives to the families of the sponsored children.
In our ongoing journey, we’ve discerned a clear calling to expand our reach, touching the lives of more children in need. Our vision radiates with the desire to offer quality education to the most vulnerable communities and to infuse Christian values into the very heart of their education. We’ve heard the poignant questions of these children, yearning to understand the presence of pain. Their questions have led us to the creation of our new name, “Andaba Integrated Ministries,” where “Andaba” in the Ugandan culture means “God sees me.” This name is a testament to our unwavering belief that God’s gaze is upon us, especially in moments of pain.
