Who we are
The Triumph Heart Organization (THO) is a non-profit organization that is committed to supporting children with (multiple) disabilities in the most basic life matters such as social, medical and educational and also to help families in various ways by providing various forms of care, information and education. The starting point here is that the family has an active role in the assistance and contributes in some way to the costs and responsibilities
The idea and inspiration to set up the organization arose after we realized that there is insufficient good and professional medical care for children within, among other things, the more remote areas in Uganda. This poor health care and the poverty, the one-sided food supply possibilities and many other problems were also the urgent necessity for the birth of THO in 2022.
THO contributes in one way or another to a good upbringing and takes on the necessary parental responsibilities.
Founded from an interdenominational faith background, Triumph Heart Organization is a Christian faith based organization to provide a hopeful future to children with disabilities through evangelism. In this, faith plays an important role and symbolizes the connection between God and the children in communities in Uganda through evangelism.
