Friends and supporters,

It’s with heavy hearts that we share some difficult news. Recently, we discovered that one of the orphanages we’ve been partnered with in Uganda — Happy Generation Children’s Ministry led by Abraham Katamba — was not operating honestly. After learning this, we immediately ended our partnership.

We are deeply saddened and truly sorry to everyone who gave in support of this ministry over the past five years. Please know that your generosity came from a place of love and compassion, and that heart is what truly reflects the mission of Rivers of Hope.

Moving forward, we’ve made the difficult decision to end all international orphanage partnerships. As much as we wish we could support children worldwide, we simply do not have the ability to properly vet and monitor every organization overseas to ensure funds are used with full integrity.

We remain committed to serving our local community with transparency and accountability, bringing hope and help right here where we can see the impact firsthand.

Thank you for your continued support, understanding, and prayers as we learn and grow from this experience. 💙

With humility and gratitude,
Rivers of Hope Ministries
