THE RIVER FUND

Father Centurio Olaboro and the Uganda Martyrs Orphans' Project is working to meet the needs of orphans created by the AIDS epidemic in the East African country. In 1998 he was introduced to Ma Jaya at the United Religion Initiative conference in San Francisco and told her about the plight of orphans in his homeland. There are an estimated 2.4 million orphans, representing nearly 10 percent of Uganda's population. In his home district of Tororo alone, there have been thousands of deaths due to AIDS, leaving thousands of children vulnerable. Together with orphans of civil war, the situation is becoming overwhelming.
The UMOP assists families by offering:
