Call To Care Uganda is a humanitarian non-profit organization founded in 2007. Our mission is to improve the lives of vulnerable children and those who care for them in Uganda.

Through many different project partnerships ranging from providing villages with wells containing safe, clean drinking water to building a community center for children in the rural Kaberamaido District, we strive to bring hope to those who have no hope and smiles to the faces of thousands of children in need…so many of them orphans.

"Project Helping Hands"

On June 22, Call To Care Uganda flew Jonas Tumuhebwe and Jolly Kabigumira to Connecticut from Uganda.

CTCU met Jonas in November 2008 in Bushenyi at the Faith Primary School. Jonas had been a victim of a violent crime that left her without any hands and also a widow with six children to care for. Can you even imagine that scenario?

With AMAZING CONNECTIONS made through a nurse named Kathy Wargo and Hanger Prosthetics in North Haven, CT, a new life of hope became a reality.

Jonas received her new prosthetic hands a few weeks ago and studied and practiced diligently (and with great humor!) to master her skills during her limited stay in the US. Jolly, her dedicated translator, tutor and friend never left her side. These two women captured the hearts of so many here in Connecticut, and are sure to inspire so many others back home in Uganda.

Enjoy the recent news coverage of this story and incredible journey of "helping hands" in Connecticut.
