About
Through Hope Ministries Uganda: USA's partnership with Hope Ministries Uganda and Pastor Gerald Tugume, our mission is to build awareness of the plight of a forgotten people and to bring the hope of Jesus Christ to the Batwa through a holistic approach. Part of this holistic approach understands the extreme poverty and discrimination from which the Batwa come and recognizes that poverty is more than just low income.
The Batwa are a pygmy tribe located in the southwest corner of Uganda. They are conservation refugees who were evicted from their rain forest home so that the Bwindi Impenetrable Rain Forest could be made into a World Heritage Site to protect the 350 endangered mountain gorillas. The land they moved to was without a forest and was foreign to them. As one of the oldest documented tribes in Africa, thousands of years of living as the "Keepers of the Forest," they were changed to becoming "land squatters" and "living scarecrows." The Batwa have been held captive by being separated from God and as conservation refugees. The struggle has been real. The hope is that through being the hands and feet of Jesus, Hope Ministries Uganda will help free the Batwa from captivity, and they will discover a relationship with the living God. They will no longer be called unworthy. They have a new name and a new life. God is not done with them.
Our current focus is at the Land of Living Hope, where we work with 335 orphaned and abandoned Batwa children, whom we call Seeds of Hope. In addition, our child sponsorship program helps to feed and educate our children.
Through our Farm to Their Table Campaign, we are on the road towards sustainable living through agriculture and farm animals. We are building bright futures at the Land of Living Hope.
