http://www.welcomehomeafrica.com -- Welcome Home Ministries, Africa (WHMA) is the first and largest orphanage in Jinja,Uganda for children from birth to 6 years.

It was founded by the late Jackie Hodgkins in 1995 as a home for dying and destitute babies. Babies born prematurely, or with Malaria, AIDS, Tuberculosis, Measles, Starvation, and other potentially fatal diseases would find God's love through the staff of WHMA. Although they were able to save most babies, some passed on to a better life, knowing that they were very much loved and wanted

  • Great job but I would like to know...

    After their 6th birthday, where do they go?

  • They try to find a home for them either with other surviving relatives such as aunts or uncles, or in an orphanage that supports older children, or through adoption.

  • and if they can't??? then what are they "released" back to kenya, to the cities, back into the circle for it all to happen again? I am sorry, it is just hard to see this happen again and again. Is there alway a resolution for these watoto?

  • This is an orphanage, the age limits are just guidelines which are a reflection of our mission statement. No one would ever think of discarding these precious children after caring for them and loving them for 5 years. Relax, we always find a place for them. Many of them go to Watoto Orphanage in Uganda, which is more appropriate for 6 years old and up.
