Shepherds of Hope is an official 501 ( c ) (3) non-profit organization, which will support and sponsor children and young people in need, worldwide, here in Iowa-USA, where we live currently, and Uganda, Africa, where one of the founders, Joshua, was born and raised. This non-profit was born out of our love to help those in need. Joshua and Andrea Atuhairwe, husband and wife team and founders, have been helping children and young adults with the little they have, for nearly a decade, and, now, have started this organization to give an opportunity for others to meet the needs of children and young people, globally.

One of our main missions is to sponsor students to attend school in Uganda. It costs about 50 to 100 dollars each semester to do so. The new school year begins in February. There are three semesters in a school year, February to April, May to July, and August to the first week in December. 150 to 300 dollars sponsors a student to attend school for a full year!
