About the Home of the Holy Angels
The Home of the Holy Angels will provide dignified housing, educational, and medical care to those children who have lost one or both parents and have no immediate family member capable of providing the care, comfort, and nurturing that all children so richly deserve.
In the Kibale area, all resources needed for these children are difficult to obtain. Adequate and sanitary water conditions are in short supply putting the children at further risk for malnutrition and disease. Rain water is collected in barrels during the rainy season, and some residents must walk several miles to obtain well-water
considered "safe" for consumption or even for the daily activities of washing and cleaning.
On September 5, 2007 KUDU's vision to help these children was graced by the opportunity to purchase 20 acres of land in the Kibale district. Through private donations, this purchase was a major step to achieving the ultimate goal of building the Home of the Holy Angels. KUDU's next important step is the funding for construction of the home. (Photo left: Fr. Walsh, Fr. Charles, Joe Panzl review the plans for the Holy Angels Orphanage)
The home will include living and eating areas, classrooms, a medical infirmary, self generated electricity, and sanitary water supplies. Initially, 25 children will be
hosted, hopefully doubling by the year 2009. With KUDU's 20 acres of land, our ultimate goal is to expand our mission up to 500 children.
The initial construction costs for the home (25 children) are anticipated to be US $100,000.
