Orphans Free education Program
Our program is a response to the needs of vulnerable and abandoned children in Uvira, Democratic Republic of Congo. Following the numerous wars that have been taking place in the eastern part of D.R.C many children have lost their parents and found themselves in the streets with no hope. Our program helps each child with free education and school equipments.
When you dedicate your time and resources to helping a child, you become a hero.
We believe all children should be able to learn and experience a childhood that is sufficiently enriched enough so that they can grow up to become active members of society.
This program is open to children who are orphans and abandoned by their parents, and whose parents couldn't pay for their various needs. One of the biggest challenges for these children is the lack of basic knowledge about life and what the world around them is about.
Our long-term goals
We would like to construct a large school with multiple classrooms that can accommodate a large number of students in the future.
Building a clinic where children can receive free medical treatment.
Purchasing land where We can grow crops like maize, beans, tomatoes and etc… to provide food for the children.
Constructing houses for families and installing solar power systems to enable children to study at night.
Lastly, We plan to organize seminars to train other young people and get them involved in humanitarian activities.
Overall, We are driven by the desire to make a positive impact on the lives of those in need, particularly children who are facing difficult circumstances.

Testimonials
I would like to begin by expressing my gratitude to the Orphans Free Education Program for providing me with the opportunity to receive free education. This program has truly been one of the greatest blessings in my life. I am deeply appreciative for the abundance of knowledge I have acquired through this program, as it has played a vital role in shaping my future and contributing to the person I have become today.
I am firm in the belief that the organization's unwavering support and care are the primary reasons for the progress I have made. Without their dedication and guidance, I would not be where I am today. I offer my heartfelt thanks to the almighty God, whose divine intervention allowed Pastor Kafunga to establish this incredible organization that continues to provide valuable assistance to our community.

My name is Shukuru Fanuel Espoir. I lost my father in the year 2000 when I was just 2 years old. My mother had no financial ability to take care of the family or send us to school. However, through the Orphans Free Education Program, I gained access to education and everything I needed to grow up and become an active member of society. This program not only helped me spiritually by teaching me the Gospel of Jesus Christ, but also taught me how to be self-dependent and become a great person. If it weren't for this program, I wouldn't be where I am today. May God bless Pastor Kafunga wholeheartedly for this initiative!
