On 1st October 2025, Hope Away from Home (HAH) joined millions across the world to celebrate the International Day of Older Persons — a special moment to honor the strength, resilience, and wisdom of the elderly in our communities.

In Kyaka II Refugee Settlement, we stood side by side with our elderly brothers and sisters, sharing messages of dignity, care, and hope for a world where every older person lives with respect and love.

As we are done with the initial phase in our ELEDERLY ABOVE 70 YEARS OLD initiatives, we called on a team from Each zone to witness the vegetable garden we would like to cultivate for the elderly, for it is very important to involve beneficiaries in services we provide them before implementation. Today Sweswe Zone paid a visit to our exemplary garden located in BUKERE A.

We’re continuing our initiative at HOPE AWAY FROM HOME-HAH to visit and support elderly individuals above 70 years old until January 5th. Your participation or support can bring joy and hope to their lives. Remember, even the smallest contribution can make a big impact. Let’s spread love together!

Join Us in Supporting the Elderly in Kyaka II Refugee Settlement! On December 24th, 2024, we began an initiative to provide food, sanitation products (including soaps), and shoes for elderly individuals aged 70 and above in Kyaka II Refugee Settlement. Initially, we assessed 40 beneficiaries, but upon returning to deliver the planned support, we discovered a significantly higher need. Kyaka II comprises nine zones, each with 2 to 6 villages. During our visits to four zones, covering six villages, we encountered over "80 elderly beneficiaries" in need of urgent assistance. This number reflects the magnitude of the challenges faced by the elderly population in the settlement. We are incredibly grateful to those who have already contributed, enabling us to reach this growing number of individuals. However, as the need continues to expand, we urgently call on "partners, organizations, and individuals" to join this movement. Our initiative runs until "December 30th, 2024", and our vision extends beyond immediate relief. We plan to assess and identify individuals who could benefit from "vegetable gardens" to support their long-term nutritional needs. Through this process, we’ve uncovered additional areas requiring exploration and assistance. "Why this matters:" The elderly are often a forgotten population, especially within refugee settlements. Their needs are immense, yet support is scarce. Together, we can change this reality. How to Help: - Donate food, shoes, or sanitation products. - Volunteer your time or skills. - Partner with us to scale this initiative. Let’s make a difference together. Open your hearts and hands for the elderly in Kyaka II. #HopeAwayFromHome #SupportTheElderly #RefugeeSettlement #CommunityCare #KyakaII

We are excited to announce the launch of our "Garden per Elderly" initiative! We’ve prepared a nursery bed that will provide vegetables for our first cohort of 30 elderly refugees (aged 70+) in the Kyaka II Refugee Settlement. This effort will ensure they have access to fresh produce while fostering dignity and independence. Let’s cultivate hope together!

We are thrilled to share with you our final and official logo developed by our new team in charge, we also thank you so much for those we keep building
