The primary goal of Ark Ministries USA is to provide educational opportunities for the top students who graduate from Faith Primary School in Bulamagi Village, Iganga, Uganda. When needed, we also provide medical care for our students, whether it be treatment for malaria, typhoid fever, a broken bone or a more serious operation.   Hospitals in Uganda will only see patients who can prepay for their services. We are pleased to be able to step in so our students can obtain this type of medical care without delay.

​

While meals are provided when our students are in school, a holiday break, in their village, can have a serious impact on the student’s family. One more mouth to feed during times of drought and famine can be devastating. During the recent holiday break, we were able to provide food for the families of our 32 students.

​

As you can only imagine, children in a remote village such as Bulamagi are subject to many social problems. Men (and women, too) often just “walk away” from their families, leaving children with no parents or with a mother who has no job skills.  We try to provide counseling for students in these situations.

​

Our students are given the opportunity to escape poverty through education. Not all who are sponsored will be able to continue on to an academic or trade school after their four years of high school but education is never wasted. These children will have received both educational and spiritual training. They will have seen a different way of life and they will have been mentored by Christian men and women. It is our prayer that those who return to their village will shine brightly for Jesus in their world which is dominated by satanic forces.
