Building Hope
About Our Organization
Journey to help — this is the best organization I have volunteered for in my life.
Who We Are
Ummul Khairy House of Orphans
Ummul Khairy House of Orphans is a charitable organization building an orphanage in Kaolack, Senegal. Our mission is centered on three strategic priorities: providing shelter, feeding, and educating vulnerable orphans so every child has the chance to grow up safe, healthy, and hopeful.
We believe that a warm and caring environment, combined with consistent access to food, healthcare, and schooling, gives children the strongest possible foundation for the rest of their lives. Every program we run, and every dollar we raise, is guided by that belief.
Strategic Priorities
Shelter. Feed. Educate.
Every day we bring hope to children around the world. In Kaolack, that means comfortable living spaces, nutritious meals, clean water, and free education — the essentials every child needs to thrive.
