  • Holiday Video by Youth in Uganda

    As we approach the holiday season, we wanted to share something truly special with you. The youth at the Manna Rescue Home, one of the projects you make possible through your support of HEAL International, have created a short holiday video just for you.

    This video is their way of expressing the joy, hope, and sense of belonging they feel because of your generosity. Your kindness has given them safety, education, and the reassurance that people across the world care deeply about their future.

    Their smiles, laughter, and words of gratitude are a direct reflection of the love and compassion you’ve shown throughout the year. We hope this message brings warmth to your heart and reminds you of the real impact you have on young lives.

    Thank you for standing with HEAL International and for uplifting the youth of Uganda. Your support continues to create lasting change, and we are deeply grateful.

    Wishing you a peaceful and joyful holiday season.

    P.S.: Please consider HEAL International in your end-of-year giving plan. You can make a donation by clicking the button on the top right of this page.
