At the heart of the Watoto is a message of God’s unfailing love. It’s what each Watoto child has experienced in their own lives—He places abandoned and forgotten children in families full of love. When people see the children from Uganda, with their hearts healed and their dreams restored, they can’t help but realize that this same God cares for them, too.

Over the past 30 years, Watoto has sent out more than 120 choirs around the world. During that time, the choirs have met Her Majesty the Queen, performed for the President of the United States and visited almost every major parliament in the world. Yet, as remarkable as those moments have been, they cherish the times they’ve met ordinary people in their moment of pain and been able to see firsthand how Jesus heals.

Watoto is a holistic program that adopts vulnerable children into the Watoto Family and cares for them through trade or University and beyond. Their villages provide homes, families and holistic care to over 3,000 children who receive everything they need to grow up healthy and whole—food, clothing, medical care, education and most of all the love of a mother.
