LOVE UGANDA FOUNDATION HISTORY
Emmanuel McMillan is the founder of Love Uganda Foundation.
Emmanuel lived a life of misery in his childhood. Having a meal, education, clothing, medical care and other basic necessities was a a desire hardly achieved . His parents, just like all other parents of impoverished homes, could not afford to provide his sisters and brothers with the essentials to live a full life.
Amidst suffering, their family still had to take care of orphans left behind by the relatives who succumbed to AIDS or natural disasters. Fortunately, God extended the unexpected hand of sponsorship to the Ssekirime family which gave them the golden opportunity to make academic progress in different fields. God enabled McMillan to obtain theology degree from different countries (Uganda, Kenya & Botswana) and to study Business Administration at Makerere University.
Their parents, Robina and Samuel Ssekirime, who were also co partners with Love Uganda Foundation, always shared the little food, clothes and other necessities with the neighboring families that lived in similar conditions. This has turned out to be a family calling because God supernaturally intervened in the midst of a family crisis when they stopped focusing on the little they had and went forth helping those in need.
Due to the great number of orphans, other vulnerable children and widows as a result of HIV/AIDS scourges and natural disasters, we were propelled to increase the numbers of children under our care to 60 with the little we have.
In 2008, as a sponsored Bible scholar in Botswana, Emmanuel McMillan wondered how he could pay back one of his sponsors Andrew McMillan for the great work he had done in his life. When asked, to his surprise, Andrew replied: “DO TO OTHERS WHAT HAS BEEN DONE UNTO YOU!” This was just a confirmation of what had already started a few years back. When Emmanuel returned to Uganda in 2009, this then led to the formation of a sponsorship project which has reached out to 300 children even though very few have sponsors.
Through our prayer partners, Kelly and Calvin, God spoke to us that we should stop calling his children orphans because we are raising ambassadors of His kingdom who will pass on a long lasting blessing to other generations. We then became AMBASSADORS OF ZION CHILDREN MISSION in Rwanda and Uganda.
We now have a couple of different project entities: AZCM Orphans Help Uganda and Rwanda, AZCM Uganda tours (Adventure in the Pearl of Africa) and AZCM Farmers Association (to enhance the sponsorship of children and widows under our program).
This ministry has been blessed with divine connections of men and women who are co-founding members: Mr. Daniel P Trouten( webmaster) Mr & Mrs. Louis Washington, Mr & Mrs Menno Menninga and other AZCM family - a people with the same passion to transform the lives of widows, orphans and other vulnerable children into God’s Ambassadors who will be a blessing in our nations.
AZCM welcomes partners who wish to participate in empowering widows, orphans and vulnerable children. We want to help them acquire shelter, education, medical care, food, clothing and other life necessities to turn them into successful men and women who will be a blessing to the future generations.
