village of hope
What does this fund?
Homes, education, food, medical care, counseling, salaries of house moms & aunties, teachers, nurses and other staff caring the children and other needs to help them grow physically, intellectually, emotionally and spiritually.
How much of my money goes to my child?
100%! We do not take out any administrative costs.
Can I write to them?
YES! You have an opportunity to build a lasting relationship with your child through shared letters and photos. We hand deliver “suitcase” mail to the Village about three times/year (spring, summer and fall). We will notify you a few weeks before we’re leaving so you can send your letter. Send your letters in 6” x 9” or smaller envelopes, please. These can be mailed to:
Village of Hope Uganda
P.O. Box 700126
Dallas, TX 75370-0126
We will hand deliver them.
Or email your letter and photos to Donna Truitt who lives at the Villages with our children:
dtruitt306@gmail.com
Will I be my child’s only sponsor?
The cost to care for a child at Village of Hope is $120 per month so each child will have up to three sponsors.
Can I send them a gift?
We ask that you send only small, inexpensive items like pencils, pens, stickers, bookmarks and small notepads– items that will fit in a 6” x 9” envelope and that the kids can share with their friends. Please do not send jewelry. If we receive larger or more expensive items, we will send them to the Village for use by all the kids as suitcase space allows.
Do I have to pay monthly or can I do a once a year donation?
You can choose the payment frequency that works best for you.
How long are the children in the program?
Until they are self sustaining; which means they can get a job and take care of themselves physically and emotionally.
What happens when I can no longer support my child?
We understand things can be out of our control and you may have to discontinue sponsoring your child, so we will find another sponsor for them. Please continue to correspond with your child. You have built a loving relationship and your letters would be such an encouragement to them.
If you have more questions, we would be happy for you to Contact Us and we will provide you with more information.

Mission Statement
Compelled by a God-centered heart for orphans, Village of Hope (VOH) rescues the lives of former child soldiers, sex slaves and their younger siblings orphaned by war. VOH provides a safe haven for healing and hope for a future. Our approached is designed to prepare and inspire VOH young men and women to become productive citizens, ethical leaders and beacons for Christ within their communities and country.
This is accomplished by our outreach ministries of food, education, counseling and micro-economic projects in nearby Gulu’s former IDP camps. Two residential Villages of Hope provide loving homes, physical and spiritual support, medical services, onsite schools/vocational training and solutions and systemic poverty and hopelessness among Uganda’s most vulnerable children.
Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you,”declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
But just who are the kids at the Village of Hope and where did they come from?
Our Vision
Where God transforms children of war into children of hope. Once healed, educated and self-sustaining, our desire is for them to bring change to their community and country.
Isaiah 1:17 “Learn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed. Take up the cause of the fatherless”
Our Partners
By networking with organizations, churches, families, schools and individuals in America who desire to work together for the sake of the children. We can do more together than any of us can do on our own.
