Our Founder

Meet Nkaye Siliman

Nkaye Siliman - Founder

Hello!

I am Nkaye Siliman from Uganda. I am currently running ARK OF HOPE CHILD FOUNDATION community, in my village, called Nawangoma and located on the suburb of Jinja.

I grew up in poor conditions and with a lot of difficulties. So now I want to do something about the situation we have here and I came up with an idea of starting up an organization/home care that will act as our home for street kids to protect their vulnerability.

My main goal is to empower underprivileged children through, covering their basics needs as food and a roof, family development and strong christian education.
