Sanyuka Children Ministries, a Ugandan NGO, exists to restore hope, dignity, and tangible opportunities to vulnerable and orphaned children in Uganda through holistic, family-based Christian care; high-quality vocational and academic education; discipleship; and empowerment.

The ministry was founded in 2008 by Allan Kizito, a formerly orphaned child who, through God’s grace, the help of a distant relative, and academic scholarships, became a Software Engineer in Uganda. In 2010, Sanyuka was licensed by the Ugandan Ministry of Labor and Gender as an NGO and has since been operated by a dedicated Ugandan team in Kampala.

In 2013, Allan and his wife, Samie, immigrated to the United States. Through God’s providence and with the help of U.S. benefactors, they established a 501(c)(3) organization to expand the impact of Sanyuka’s work in Uganda.

Today, Sanyuka continues to stand as a beacon of love and opportunity for children who have faced abandonment, abuse, or extreme poverty. Through the generosity of U.S. donors, strategic partnerships, scholarships, and faithful stewardship, lives are being transformed — one child, one story at a time.

“At Sanyuka, every child’s story matters — because God’s heart beats for each one of them.” — Allan Kizito, Executive Director
