Saving Grace in Uganda is a non-profit organization that seeks to end street life in Uganda.
We seek to follow Christ’s example in feeding, clothing and discipling the least of the least in northern Uganda.
We provide hope and stability to street children, who do not have anyone to care for them and are in desperate situations. Local Ugandans and American volunteers work together as a team to rescue orphaned children out of the atrocity that is street life and provide them with a home, education, medical care, advocacy and most importantly, God’s healing love. These children who once had no hope are now thriving with hopeful futures. Whole communities are being changed as street children who once had to steal to eat are now becoming contributing members of their society.
THERE ARE OVER 50 thousand STREET CHILDREN LIVING IN UGANDA TODAY.
We are trying to make that number a little smaller. We welcome you to join us.

Meet Yuventino
After witnessing his father’s murder by LRA rebels, Yuventino fled to a displacement camp in Northern Uganda. Overcrowding and hunger drove him to the streets, where he endured beatings and abuse from older boys for many years.
When Saving Grace began, Uncle Fred welcomed him in. Bright, curious, and full of life, Yuventino beat the odds and studied at university to become a teacher. Today Yuventino teaches at Saving Grace Primary School where he invests and inspires the next generation.
