Feeding Orphans & PWDs

The Feeding Orphans and Persons with Disabilities (PWDs) Program is a humanitarian initiative of JECI – Jesus Call Initiatives Limited, based in Iganga District, Uganda. The program is dedicated to providing nutritious meals and food assistance to vulnerable orphans and persons with disabilities who struggle to access adequate daily nutrition due to poverty, abandonment, and limited sources of income. Many of the beneficiaries supported by JECI face severe food insecurity. Orphaned children often lack consistent access to balanced meals, while many persons with disabilities are unable to meet their daily nutritional needs because of unemployment, social exclusion, and financial hardship. Hunger negatively affects their health, education, productivity, dignity, and overall quality of life. Through this program, JECI provides regular nutritious meals and food relief to improve the health and well-being of vulnerable children and adults living with disabilities. Our goal is to ensure that every beneficiary has access to healthy food, enabling children to learn effectively and persons with disabilities to live healthier, more dignified, and independent lives. However, the increasing number of beneficiaries has exceeded our available resources. We urgently need support from individuals, churches, organizations, companies, and development partners to sustain and expand this feeding program. Every donation helps provide essential food items such as maize flour (posho), rice, beans, cooking oil, sugar, salt, vegetables, fruits, milk, and clean drinking water. Together, we can reduce hunger, restore hope, and improve the lives of those who need it most. At JECI – Jesus Call Initiatives Limited, we believe that no child and no person with a disability should suffer from hunger. By working together, we can ensure that vulnerable members of our community receive the nourishment they need to thrive.
