Our Staff
The Hope Center Uganda has an amazing in-country staff that runs the day-to-day operation on the ground in Mityana, Uganda. Made up of local Ugandans who have a heart and passion for children and orphans, they care deeply for every child that comes to the center. We have a group of caretakers who are working directly with the kids all day and night, a chef, a cook, a driver, a social worker, and a director.
Our US team consists of all volunteers who work on planning fundraising events, communications, child welfare plans, financial management, among many other things. We make sure that our donations go where they are needed most: Hope Center Uganda.
