Sobre nosotros
Andy Kind Heart Foundation Butebi was founded in 2014 as a community Based Non-Government Organization and now is operating countrywide in Uganda, Basing at Butebi Village in Mityana District, and it has transformed into a National center with Children from all over the country.
Poverty breeds desperation and leads people to many drastic choices. Children get killed, trafficked or sold as slave labour. Andy Kind Heart Foundation Butebi Childcare/Orphanage addresses such issues. Some children get rejected by their families for small body deformities and treatable medical conditions. Orphaned and abandoned children stay hungry, malnourished, and often diseased. Because every child is precious to God, we cannot sit back and watch these children suffer alone yet we can do something to restore their priceless lives and provide them with hope for the future.
Our work
• Water Project: Our organization with support from donors constructed a clean water well in 2017 where water is being pumped from underground. This project was carried out to help the members of the community from walking long distances while fetching dirty water from the ponds which were causing a number of disease to them and unsafe for the young ones to walk long distances through thick forests to go and fetch water. Members in the community were very thankful to the organization for coming up with an idea of the water project in their community. And these are some of the pictures
• Construction of the Health Center: A health centre that was named Living Proof Community Health Centre of Butebi was constructed in the community of Butebi with Support from Living Proof Institute and we have a team of 5 Health professionals in order to help the people in the Community to get free Health care services since a nearby Health centre was in a distance of 13km and taking advantage of the poor people. The health centre is well equipped and gives out a number of services to the poor patients for free. The construction of this health centre was so much appreciated by the people since it improved on their health status.
• School Requirements: The Organization noticed that most of the children in the community lacked school supplies and for 4 years now we are donating school requirements to over 350 children from different needy schools in the community at every beginning of a school term, which include; Books, Pens, Pencils, Sets, Calculators, Reams and rulers to all the ongoing school children which has improved on their academic performances since they go to school well equipped with all the necessary requirements and it has reduced on the number of absenteeism in schools.
• Supporting the elders: We have donated Mattresses, Blankets and pairs of Bed sheets to over 35 needy families and granny’s and all elderly people have access to free medical serves from our Health Center, which has helped them enjoy their elderly age gracefully.
• Giving out basic needs to the elders: The basic needs given to the elders include: food stuffs, sugar, paraffin, salt and soap and these have helped the adults to pass through the month smoothly without starving for those basic needs. And this activity is done monthly where we always pay a visit to the elders every month and see how they are doing.
• Kind Heart Nursery School for Orphans and Children Sponsorship: We have been able to start a Preschool for Orphans with a temporary structure, with support from generous donors, which now provides free education to over 85 orphans and poor kids, and a teaching team of 5 teachers, We are looking at setting up a school which can provide education and a home for over 300 poor children, we have the land and a plan has been drafted only looking for funding, we have to always raise school supplies, meals for the kids and salaries for the teachers,
