Ronald is an orphan who was found by our Ugandan representative living in a dump yard in Namuwongo, Uganda. At constant risk of infection and injury, he had to compete with dogs and rats for enough food to survive. Ronald was put into HOPE's Walk to School Programme; he now lives at a boarding school at which he is given food, shelter and education. 

At HOPE, we make sure that we keep our costs low to make sure that 100% of all donations go directly to children like Ronald - imagine the difference you will make!
