Our Story
iFamile Emu Children’s Center was founded June 2014 by Akol Benyamen Jayjay with the help of 친구등록 and Anyango Maureen. The idea for the organization was born when Akol and 친구등록 visited the rural orphan children in Bukedea-Uganda. During this visit Akol saw many children under child labour with little to no access to basic necessities. Since then Anyango has remained actively involved as a Co-founder whilst Akol remains the heart and soul of iFamile Emu. It was at this time that he was so much moved with compassion and decided to start the iFamile Emu Children’s Center.
iFamile Emu means “One Family” in Luganda (It’s the most language used in the central Uganda). We have made all the necessary efforts to bring up the children as members of one family despite coming from different backgrounds. This makes our center stand out from the others because we care deeply not only for feeding, sheltering, clothing and educating them but we also care about the family values we are instilling in them at this early stage of their development. iFamile Emu strongly believes that working together as a family we can make a difference to the future of the children in our care today.
World Help is a faith-based humanitarian organization that exists to serve the physical and spiritual needs of people in impoverished communities around the world.
Last year was another remarkable season in the life of our organization—a year full of growth, expansion, and sustainable impact . . . impact that we are committed to share with passion, detail, and total transparency.
Browse these pages to find firsthand accounts from international partners, staff, supporters, and some of the 2.5 million people on the ground that have experienced true life change because of the work you enabled us to do.
We will take a moment to celebrate, but we won’t stop here.
Our vision for 2013 is to go further than ever before . . . to dream bigger, push harder, and step out in faith together to reach millions more with help and hope.
Together, we can be the change the world is waiting for. We hope you’ll join us. Visit http://worldhelp.net to learn more and get involved.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

In Matthew 6, Jesus teaches His disciples how to pray. He prays, “your kingdom
come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.” (Matthew 6:10, ESV)
We are called to bring the kingdom of heaven here on earth through our prayers
and through our actions. That is what Kingdom Partners is about and it is exactly
what you have continued to do.
Every year you take another step of faith, pouring into the lives of people you
might never meet. Because of you, men, women, and children have access to
food, clean water, and education. But, most importantly, you have demonstrated
Christ’s love through your actions.
Your dedication and passion for the world continue to inspire me and I am
proud to work alongside Kingdom Partners to transform this world for Christ.
Help for today ... Hope for tomorrow.
Vernon Brewer
Founder and President, World Help
CONTENTS
LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT
Since Kingdom Partners first began partnering with World Help, you have
impacted approximately 1.8 million of the most vulnerable people on
earth. You have provided them with help for today and hope for tomorrow.
As we count down the days to a new year, I can’t help but think of the countless
people who will begin this next year with hope for a new life — all because
of Kingdom Partners. I am amazed at the hope and transformation you have
delivered to those in desperate need. You really are changing the world.
3. Because of you, children all around India are coming to know the love and
goodness of the Lord. In 2017, you sent hundreds of children to Vacation
Bible School where they received nutritious food and the chance to hear
that God loves them. You also raised the funds to renovate Gilgal Children’s
Home, making room for more children, like Nemlaldeih.
“I hope to become a doctor one day so
I can help sick people like my parents.
I believe that since God is with me, it is
OK to dream these big dreams. He will
help me reach them,” Nemlaldeih said.
By the age of 5, Nemlaldeih had lost both parents to illness. She went to live with her
grandparents, but they were unable to provide an education or food for her. A traveling
evangelist heard Nemlaldeih’s story and told her grandparents about Gilgal Children’s
Home. Nemlaldeih has now been at the home for more than 10 years. During those
years she has experienced the love of God through your compassionate gifts.
“I am forever grateful to Gilgal and our
donors for the love I receive. You have
never met me, but you love me anyway.
Thank you for giving to the Lord.”
Nemlaldeih
Your investment in the Vernon Brewer Secondary School will make an eternal difference,
giving children the opportunity to learn and thrive. Construction is anticipated to be
completed by February 2018. Nemlaldeih is just one of the hundreds of children who
have been impacted by your generosity.

INDIA
4. During recent years, Kingdom Partners has been the hands
and feet of Jesus to communities across Guatemala.
Thank you for your commitment to
transforming the lives of the people in
Tasharte. Because of you, many people
are open to the Gospel for the first time.
Your dedication to Village Transformation has provided physical help through clean-
water wells, medical clinics, feeding programs, and more. Because of you, villages
like Tasharte are experiencing the love of Jesus.
The people of Tasharte will now have hope for years to come as they experience
transformation on every level. With three new classrooms and new bathrooms in the
village school, there will be more room for children to learn and a playground will give
them a safe place to play. And the new church building and home for the pastor will
continue to grow their ministry in this village. More people will have a place to come and
hear about Jesus.

GUATEMALA
5. For the people of Guatemala, poverty and a lack of access to medical
care has created a devastating cycle. Many families do not have the
resources to care for their children. But you are changing their story.
Diabetes and immune disorders are common problems in rural areas of Guatemala.
Dialysis is expensive and inaccessible for most, but the medical clinic you provided will
give Guatemalans living in remote villages access to over 20 hemodialysis machines.
Families will finally be able to receive the help they need, when they need it. Through
those machines alone, you are changing the lives of thousands.
And by helping expand Kelly’s House, 40 more children like Daisy will receive the
specialized care they need!
Daisy came to Kelly’s House from an orphanage in Guatemala City. When the
orphanage closed down, Daisy had nowhere to go … until you stepped in. The five new
bedrooms, three bathrooms, and new therapy room you provided allow the staff to
provide more children like her with love and care.. Today Daisy is safe and happy and
has a hope for the future — all because you made room for her.

GUATEMALA CLINIC
6. There are more refugees around the world today than any
other time since World War II, but nowhere is the situation
worse than the Middle East.
Your support allowed us to ship lifesaving
supplies such as water, food, warm clothes, and
shelter to refugees in need. You also funded a
mobile medical clinic that continues to meet
the needs of displaced people in the Middle
East. Children are able to go to school and many
have received Bibles in their own language.
Thank you for providing hope
for refugees as they continue
to face an uncertain future.
Abdel — whose name we’ve changed to protect his identity — and his family of nine fled
their war-torn village in Syria and settled in a refugee camp in Jordan. At 13, Abdel was the
breadwinner for his family.
He would hunt through the trash for scraps of rotten food to feed his family or sell as food for
livestock. The money from selling this stale bread was barely enough to live on.
But thanks to your generosity, families like Abdel’s received much-needed aid.

REFUGEE RELIEF
7. When disaster strikes, countless people experience dire circumstances
and are in urgent need of emergency supplies. You helped make sure
men, women, and children received food, clean water, medical supplies,
and more when they needed it most.
But because of the medical equipment and
the funds you provided to local hospitals in
Guatemala, Teresa is receiving the proper
treatments — for free!
This year, multiple hurricanes devastated countries such as Cuba and Puerto Rico.
Thousands were without access to food, clean water, shelter, and medical care. The
demand was great and you responded quickly, providing emergency supplies that
helped save lives.
You also helped send lifesaving supplies to places including Honduras, Guatemala, and
the Middle East. You made an eternal difference for people like the Paz family.
Teresa Paz has spent most of her young life battling major respiratory issues — but her
parents were too poor to afford the medical care she needed.
Your quick and generous
responses have been the
difference between life
and death for countless
people around the world.

HUMANITARIAN AID
8. In communities around Thailand and India, women bear the brunt
of their families’ financial responsibilities. From a young age, girls are
forced to believe that their only viable option is to sell their bodies. They
spend their lives exploited and abused, unaware of their own worth.
But because of your support, girls like Suda
can choose a better life. Suda became
connected with the Freedom Center in
Pattaya where she received an education
and emotional support. Today, she has
completed high school and dreams of
attending college and starting a new career.
But you have helped young women regain their freedom … you’ve helped show them
the love of Jesus.
Suda, whose name we’ve changed to protect her identity, has been sold five times — the first
when she was just 11 years old. She should have been playing with friends and attending
school. Instead, Suda had to sell her body to provide for her family. She was considered
property, her ability to choose completely taken from her. Without an education, Suda
would never have a chance at freedom.
Thank you for giving
freedom to Suda and
hundreds of girls like her.

FREEDOM
9. The people of Nepal have remained close to your heart. You stepped in after the
devastating earthquake in 2015 to rebuild Grace Children’s Home in Chaku. You
provided for countless children when they felt all hope had been lost.
“We are very happy to live in such a beautiful and secure building. We now have space
for a separate study hall, dining hall, and larger rooms for both boys and girls. There’s a
compound where the children can play and solar panels to help heat water and provide
reliable electricity.” – Pastor Kam, director of Grace Children’s Home
Because of you, Grace Children’s
Home has brand new facilities that
are bigger and better than ever,
housing 60 orphaned children.
“I would like [to thank] God and Kingdom
Partners for providing this building. I feel
that I am a lucky person because my life is
totally changed by this children’s home.”
Pashi

NEPAL
10. For the people of Uganda, hope is often a rare commodity. Poverty and
illness are all too common. But Destiny Villages of Hope is making a
difference thanks to the help of Kingdom Partners.
You helped complete a secondary boys home in Uganda and it is changing the life of
boys like Hassan. Hassan came to Destiny when he was 5 years old. He was one of eight
children living in the slums of Katwe, where even basic survival was not guaranteed. He
came to the Villages of Hope looking for just that — hope.
Even in its early years, there was rarely enough space at Destiny Villages of Hope to
accommodate all the children who needed help. Children came from all over Uganda,
each with different background stories and different needs. You helped ensure they were
able to take in more young boys in need.
Thank you for making room for
boys like Hassan. Because of you,
they have a safe place to live and
receive a quality education.
“We thank God that He has given us a
provision of this new dormitory. I have
a bed and plenty of space and we are
all very happy. Life here is wonderful.”
Hassan

UGANDA
11. Kingdom Partners has always been passionate about caring for God’s
most precious possession — His children! This year, Kingdom Partners has
sponsored 95 children in 10 countries. Without your support, these children
would be susceptible to illness, malnutrition, and more. Most would be
unable to afford an education and would remain in a cycle of poverty.
Because of you, many children like Santosh
have a bright future. You provided them with
necessary education, but you also allowed
them to learn about the love of Jesus.
But you stepped in and are making a difference in the lives of these children. You are
letting boys and girls like Santosh know that they are valuable — to you and to God.
His father died of leprosy when Santosh was a young boy. His mother was unable to care
for her four children alone. But because of you, Santosh and his younger sister were able
to live at the children’s home in India. They were able to go to school, play sports with
friends, and above all learn about Jesus.
“I am very thankful for my
sponsors who supported
me through my education.”
Santosh

SPONSORSHIP
12. At its core, Kingdom Partners has always been committed to sharing the
message of Christ. This year, you helped church planters around the
world establish more than 2,000 new churches.
When you plant a church in places such as India, Nepal, China, and Cuba, you give an
entire community access to true transformation. Through the local church, Kingdom
Partners has been able to reach countless lives. In rural communities, the church plant
becomes the home for feeding programs, school classrooms, medical clinics, and more.
As the church grows, more and more people are reached with the Gospel.
Your gifts empowered local pastors to
spread God’s love to the people in their
communities. You are making an eternal
impact and reaching the world for Christ.

The church in Cuba is growing and working hard to share the love of Christ with its
community — and it is changing the lives of people like Theo.
Theo, whose name we’ve changed to protect him and his family, labored long and hard
in a field to provide for his wife and children. One day Theo was attacked by a wild
animal. He survived but was hospitalized and unable to care for his children. He worried
a lot — how would his family survive?
That’s where the local church stepped in.
Believers began to visit Theo in the hospital
and made sure his children never went
hungry. Theo came to know the love of
Jesus as he watched them minister to his
family. When he came out of the hospital,
Theo even offered his home as a meeting
place for the church.
“Here is my family and
my humble house at the
service of the Lord.”
Theo
Thank you for showing the compassion of Jesus to the people of Cuba.
Your kindness and generosity are transforming the entire country.

14. Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.
(Psalm 119:105, ESV)
In a world of great darkness, only God’s Word can bring light. Kingdom Partners is
dedicated to getting the Word of God into the hands of those who need it the most.
This year, you provided 325 Bibles, impacting 2,250 people! You helped distribute God’s
Word in places such as North Korea, the Middle East, and Cuba. When someone receives
a Bible for the first time, the joy that overcomes him is incredible. You have given eternal
hope to people like Min.
“I have no other wish in my life. I have
prayed for a Bible for so long.”
Min
Thank you for giving Bibles to men,
women, and children in some of the
world’s darkest places. You are bringing
a light that will last for eternity.

BIBLE DISTRIBUTION
15. From the very beginning, you committed to breaking the cycle of poverty
by providing clean water. This year, you provided 10 water projects in six
countries. You impacted 8,190 people with the gift of clean water!
Edith is 24 years old and a mother to 7-month-old twins. She was born and raised in Kenya,
where most young women walk long distances to collect water. But now, you provided her
with a clean-water well in her own village! You helped change her life!
I am grateful to World Help for the
clean water they provided us. We are
blessed as the water is abundant and
clean. This is a great blessing to the
whole Gilgal family.
Donald
You also helped provide a water filtration
system at Gilgal Children’s Home in India.
Now, they have clean water for drinking,
cooking, and cleaning. You have made a
huge impact with clean water.
