Our Projects

Uvuru Hospital Project

Rural communities lack government support and rely on charity. Workers often drive patients to a missionary hospital in Nsukka, 40 miles away, taking up to two hours due to poor roads, resulting in tragic deaths during transit.

The Uvuru Hospital Project has received seven acres of land, with the Uvuru Town Council agreeing to fund its care and maintenance once built. The hospital will serve about 3,000 people per month, totaling 36,000 annually, addressing the needs of 50,000 residents.

Women for Widows

Sunrise for Rural Dwellers supports Uvuru, Nigeria, through projects like Women for Widows. Widows in this area often face denial of inheritance rights, resulting in extreme poverty and social abuse. In 2021 and 2022, we provided sustenance through Christmas meals and food drives.

In 2022, we helped establish a widow-run farming cooperative offering land, seeds, and tools. The farm ensures food stability and generates income from surplus produce. In 2023, the widows sought education funds, and our organization provided teachers and supplies, empowering them to improve their lives and those of their children.
