Christmas in July

A season of meaningful giving to support the children, families, and programs of Cherish Uganda.

The most meaningful gifts are rarely the extravagant ones.

Often, they are the simple acts of generosity that quietly remind someone they are seen, valued, and deeply loved.

This Christmas in July, we’re inviting our community to come alongside the ongoing work of spiritual transformation happening at Cherish Uganda by helping provide meaningful resources, practical needs, and everyday care for the children and families in our programs.

From classrooms and discipleship programs to family strengthening initiatives and compassionate healthcare, each gift becomes part of a much greater story — one that continues to unfold long after the season ends!

More Than Gifts ✳︎

At Cherish, transformation happens through consistent love, intentional relationships, and the faithfulness of a community willing to walk alongside others.

Every school supply, hospital resource, family support initiative, and practical gift helps strengthen the programs that serve vulnerable children and families every day.

But beyond meeting physical needs, we believe these acts of generosity point to something even greater: the love of Christ at work within a community being transformed spiritually, relationally, and practically!

Christmas in July is rooted in the simple beauty of people coming together to care for one another well. Not in excess or urgency, but in thoughtful generosity that carries lasting impact far beyond a season.

Simple Gifts That Make a Difference

There is something special about choosing a simple gift for someone you may never meet, knowing it will become part of their everyday life.

This list includes practical items that support children, families, and staff across Cherish programs—small things that carry real, tangible care.

Support the Work of Cherish

Every gift given through this campaign helps strengthen the daily work of spiritual transformation happening across Cherish programs.

Whether supporting a child in the classroom, helping provide compassionate medical care, or sustaining the ongoing work behind the scenes, each contribution becomes part of a larger story of hope, dignity, discipleship, and community.

We invite you to give toward the area that resonates most with your heart!

Child Life Skills

Our Child Life Skills (Foundations) program creates spaces where children are nurtured spiritually, neurologically, and relationally during some of the most formative years of life.

Through discipleship, meals, mentorship, and consistent care, children are reminded that they are deeply valued and created with purpose. As relationships are built and truth is poured into young lives, we desire to see children experience the hope of Christ and the lasting spiritual transformation that comes from being known, loved, and supported within community.

Hospital

Our hospital serves children, mothers, and families by providing compassionate and accessible healthcare within the community.

Through medical care, nutrition support, community outreach, and meaningful relationships, families are met with dignity, compassion, and hope. As we walk alongside people through both challenges and celebrations, we desire to see lives transformed through the healing, support, and hope found in Christ.

Operations

Behind every classroom, clinic visit, family program, and moment of care is the steady work that keeps Cherish programs running each day.

Through the upkeep of facilities, transportation resources, equipment, and essential infrastructure, Cherish programs are able to faithfully serve children and families throughout the community. These behind-the-scenes investments help create the spaces and opportunities where lasting spiritual transformation can take place.
