In 2012, Samuel Kuteesa a trained transformational leader, follower of Jesus Christ and a social entrepreneur by profession, set out to address the increasing obstacles orphaned children and poor communities in Uganda face. Today, many more individuals and groups have joined the cause and made it their mission too.
Samuel founded Peculiar Child Care Support, as a compassionate response to the plight of the millions of orphans and vulnerable children in Uganda.
The children are rescued, taken care of, educated, and equipped with the necessary knowledge and skills to enable them to realize their full potential as well as growing up to become Godly, innovative, self-sustaining and productive leaders. Schools are set up for children to receive a formal Christian education.
I grew up from a humble Christian family background by a faithful widow-single mother of eight children in a slum (Ghetto) community called Kawempe – Bwaise, an area close to Kampala the capital city of Uganda. I am the last of the 8 children and after the death of our father, as a family we went through a lot of hardships right from childhood and encountered all the would-be family and children related challenges and problems most especially in relation to accessing of school fees and other basic requirements of life.
