Become part of the movement. Founded in 2008, Okoa Refuge began as a home for children in need in Uganda. Our work has grown in response to the expressed needs of the communities we serve. In partnership with the local Church, Okoa Refuge exists to glorify Christ through stabilizing the family unit and transforming entire communities. Through our various ministries and partnerships with local churches, we empower independent communities, protect the vulnerable, and prioritize indigenous autonomy. We're thankful you decided to check out our new digital experience!
