Welcome to Abba Father's house (AFH), a children's home based in Jinja, Uganda's second largest town the vision of Juliet Najja. It is a Christian charity formed to create homes for disadvantaged children, especially orphans who have lost their parents due to nature hazards such as of HVI AIDS etc. Living at AFH gives children hope and they learn to develop a positive attitude to the future. Our objective is to give the children spiritual and physical care, to love them and to teach them the love of God.

The home is also developing as a center where widows can receive assistance through training in practical skills, such as tailoring, crafts etc in order to earn a living. Loving them in this way is a small demonstration of God's love for them.

AFH stands on a 2 acre plot. Following the surveying and fencing of the land, the charity was registered in 2005. Our vision manifested into reality in March 2006. This was no mean accomplishment, with the work being managed from the UK. But by faith Juliet Najja, the founder and vision holder, together with her charity partners was able to finance and manage this process.

As of April 2009 we have 17 children living at AFH. Sponsors are being sought for another 13 children as the home can accommodate up to 30 children.

An important aspect of the work of AFH is the creation of mini-business projects. This provides skills training for the children and widows, reducing their emotional dependence on the charity as well as providing an essential income for the home. So far we have a chicken and turkey rearing business, a bakery, a kiosk and a mushroom growing business. The children also grow a range of vegetables and saplings which we plan to sell on. The bread bakery now only produces Doughnuts, samosas, pies etc but production of bread will start as soon as electricity is installed to enable use of our heavy duty mixer. Fortunately the plot is big enough for all these projects!

We also have space for Phases 2 and 3, whereby we plan to build two more accommodation wings, eventually housing at least 60 more children and staff. We are committed to raising funds for these building projects. Ultimately we provide a home, clothe, feed, educate and provide the necessities for children.

Our aim is fully equipped the children raised at AFH knowledge and skills to enable them live independent lives by the time they leave us and in hope that they become responsible adults who will carry this vision forward to the next generation as we believe they will continue to practice what they are learning from AFH to maintain their independency.

We appreciate donations and any other support to make Abba Father's House a great place for our beneficiaries.
