Founded on Faith, Driven by Love

African Children's Hope for Love Foundation Uganda (HOPEVILLAS) began its mission in 2009 when Pastor Mark Mesach Ssinamenye rescued his first children, driven by a passion to restore hope through the love of Christ. In 2013, the organization was officially registered as an NGO in Uganda to formalize its growing operations.

Since those early days, HOPEVILLAS has rescued and cared for over 113 children, providing them with safe shelter, education, spiritual guidance, and a chance for a better future. What started as one man's calling has grown into a multi-project organization transforming an entire community.
