Thank You 🌟
Thank you for your love.
Thank you for your prayers.
Thank you for your generous hearts.

This week has been nothing short of a miracle. More than once, I’ve stepped back and simply said: “Thank you, Jesus. Thank you, God.”

We’re already 56% of the way to our goal—far beyond what I expected this quickly. People have amazed me with their kindness.

In prayer, I’ve sensed God say: “I love these kids, and it’s time to do more.”

I am humbled and encouraged. Some of you have given even when it cost you. Others—already living by faith in your own ministries—have chosen to believe in our mission. That means more than I can say.

Every gift, every prayer, every word of encouragement reminds me: we are not alone. And I believe the best is yet to come.

👉 We’re over halfway there—but we need your help to reach the finish line!
Would you stand with us to bring hope, healing, and joy to more children like Joram and Prosy?

✨ Out in the Community ✨

This past week, our team set out to visit children and families we hadn’t met before. Just getting there was an adventure. In Uganda, directions don’t come with road signs—they come with landmarks.

“Stop where the bananas are sold,” Joram’s mother told us.
We stopped, called, and looked—but wrong stall.
“Meet by the mango tree on the left-hand side.”
No, not that mango tree either.

After a few tries—bananas, bumps, mango trees—we finally arrived at the right home. And what a welcome we received!

We met Joram’s grandparents for the first time and began planning how to build parallel bars from local materials so he can practice standing at home. We even tested the veranda poles, and they worked beautifully.

The highlight of the day came when Joram, joyful and determined, crawled for the very first time—right between his mother and the PT assistant. Watching him discover this new movement was pure joy.

✨ Prosy’s Laughter ✨

And then there’s our delightful Prosy! She always brightens our visits. Funny, playful, and learning to walk, she greeted us in her own way. At first, she walked toward us… then quickly turned and hid behind a little shelter, as if thinking: “Uh-oh, the PT team is here—time for exercises!”

But hiding didn’t last long. We had brought her a dress, and the moment she saw it, she lit up and couldn’t wait to wear it.

Soon she was laughing and joining in games. The highlight of the day was a simple but powerful game of catch. Since one of Prosy’s hands tends to stay closed, encouraging her to use it takes creativity. But with a ball, her siblings, and cousins, she was soon catching and throwing with both hands.

Prosy’s home overflows with love. She lives in a close-knit family of more than 11 relatives across three houses, and the care for her is unmistakable. Everywhere she turns, someone is there to cheer her on.

🌍 Let’s Finish Strong 🌍

We’re more than halfway there—but we can’t stop now. Every pound, every prayer, every share takes us closer to transforming lives.

👉 Will you help us cross the finish line?

✨ Your generosity changes lives—just look at the impact you're making.

Meet Kirabo and Payasi. Thanks to your support, these two little ones, who once faced overwhelming odds, are now smiling, learning, and dreaming again. The photographs you see aren’t just pictures; they’re living proof of what hope looks like when a community comes together. Their Stories are attached to the photos.

These children are just two among many, and their stories remind us of the incredible possibilities that arise when kindness turns into action. đź’™

Kirabo and Payasi are more than their struggles. They are children with bright smiles, resilient spirits, and futures worth fighting for. What they need now is support—the chance to continue therapy, to grow, and to thrive.

Would you consider standing with us to give these children hope and healing? https://gofund.me/8d996436?

Thank you💙💙 to our friends who have already given. So far, we’ve raised £125 of the £6,190 we urgently need.
As many of you know, I’m Teresha, founder of Triumph Heart. Our work runs on quarterly donation and my family of six’s own income. It’s not enough. The weight is crushing — some weeks, my family survives on just £20 while still covering Triumph Heart’s costs.

We can’t keep going like this.
But we also can’t turn away from children with disabilities who need us.

Would you stand with Triumph heart?
Your gift keeps our clinics open, fuels home visits, provides therapy, nutrition, and equipment for children like Blessing and Sam

Blessing is 8 years old and lives with her grandmother after being abandoned by her mother due to her disability. She has cerebral palsy and struggled with severe malnutrition, weighing as little as 8 kg. With regular nutritional support, physiotherapy, and a wheelchair from Triumph Heart, Blessing is gaining strength and now weighs 10 kg. Her grandmother proudly notes that she is much stronger. However, Blessing still needs ongoing care and therapy to continue her progress. With continued support, she can move toward a healthier future.

At just 5 years old, Sam’s journey is already inspiring. Not long ago, he couldn’t sit, stand, or participate in daily life without his grandmother’s constant help. Now, he crawls across the floor with a joyful smile and enjoys putting together jigsaw puzzles. Sam can sit without any support, feed himself, and has gained a new sense of independence. Although he still doesn’t speak, he has found his own ways to express what’s on his mind. Nothing brings him more joy than playing ball. With Triumph Heart by his side, this is only the beginning. His future is wide open, and every step forward is a triumph waiting to be celebrated.

We are raising funds to cover six months of running costs while we await registration from the UK Charity Commission.

Here’s what your monthly gift can do:
💙 £10 – Fuel for 1 home visit
💙 £20 – Therapy for 1 child
💙 £50 – Feed 15 children for 1 month
💙 £100 – Run 2 clinics

đź’™ Your one-off gift today helps us reach six months of stability.

đź’™ Your monthly gift makes sure no child is ever turned away.

Let’s walk together each month — side by side with Sam, Vivian, Jesse, and every child who’s chasing their next milestone. Each step we take together brings them closer to the future they deserve.

Give Monthly or as a one off and Be part of their journey.

**In Honor of Tal, With Hope for Elijah**

Recently, Elijah—affectionately known as Papa—visited our clinic. At just 18 months old and with Down syndrome, he stirred something deep within me.

People with Down syndrome have profoundly impacted my family’s life, inspiring my mother to work in disability care and leading me, Teresha, to choose this path as well.

It's time to share part of that journey.

My uncle Tal had Down syndrome. He thrived in a loving community, enjoying life in a group home and going to the cinema. He was joyful, kind, and deeply loved, experiencing opportunities that many do not, especially in places like Uganda.

In Uganda, approximately one in every 1,000 people has Down syndrome, totalling around 36,000 individuals. Most live in the shadows, excluded from schools, clinics, jobs, and basic services. It isn't their abilities that hold them back; it's the world’s failure to make space for them.

Having worked with many individuals with Down syndrome, I've seen people find joy in holding jobs and volunteering. What stands out is not their achievements, but who they are: joyful, generous, and full of heart. They remind us of the essence of living with love.

Elijah is just beginning his journey. He is energetic and full of potential, deserving of every opportunity. Challenges may arise, but they should never define him. I am excited that we started working with him at such a young age, as I know he has many opportunities in the future.

My uncle Tal lived a life that some might call “reasonably okay.” This should not be the exception, but rather the foundation—not the ceiling. Every Elijah deserves more, and each of those 36,000 individuals deserves more.

Let’s unite to build a world that empowers them—one joyful step at a time.

The Grandmothers Who Carry Everything

In our clinics, we face a striking reality: more than half of the children we see are being raised not by their parents, but by their grandparents—most often, by unwavering grandmothers who’ve stepped in when no one else would.

This reality is not by choice. These remarkable individuals should be enjoying the fruits of retirement, rest, and peace. Yet, they have embraced full-time caregiving, often for children with severe disabilities.

We witness grandmothers in their 60s, 70s, and even 80s, cradling five-year-olds who cannot walk, feeding those who can’t feed themselves, and lifting little ones who need constant support.

Why do they do this? Because the parents—too often, the mothers—have walked away, pursuing new lives and leaving behind the hardest burdens.

But the grandmothers stayed. They have faced exhaustion, heartbreak, hospital visits, and sleepless nights. They have remained steadfast because love never abandons.

These grandmothers are more than caretakers; they are the backbone of our communities. They are protectors, providers, and quiet heroes who carry the weight when no one else will.

We owe them our respect, unwavering support, and heartfelt gratitude.

🌟 We’re Almost There—Help Us Cross the Finish Line! 🌟

Since August last year, we’ve been working hard to build a therapy centre for children with disabilities—and a safe space where mothers can come together for support, learning, and healing.

Thanks to your love and generosity, this dream is so close to becoming reality. đź’›

We’re now in the final stage of the project! The land is ready, the pit latrine is under construction, and we’re preparing to start group therapy sessions.

But to fully launch, we need just one final push:

🎯 £650 to purchase essential therapy equipment and office supplies (includes GoFundMe fees).

Here's what your donation will help fund:
🧸 Therapy Equipment

Therapy Balls (55cm, 65cm, 75cm): ÂŁ51

Exercise Mats (2): ÂŁ40

Wedges (3): ÂŁ33

Rolls (4): ÂŁ44

Corner Seats (2): ÂŁ18

Standing Frames (2): ÂŁ30

Metallic Stairs: ÂŁ45

Parallel Bars: ÂŁ55

✨ We’re SO close! ✨

✅ Fence—Finished!
✅ Clustering—Finished!
✅ Windows—In!
✅ Shelter for clinics & therapy—Up!

But we still need 8 more iron sheets to fully complete the Triumph Heart therapy shelter. We already have 8 iron sheets, and just 8 more will finish it!

Here’s how simple it is:
If 8 people give just ÂŁ10 or ÂŁ11, we can complete this vital shelter for vulnerable children.

Would you stand with us to finish this? Every gift makes a difference!

Thank you for believing with us. Let’s do this together! ❤️


Thank you so much!

Amazing Progress! 🚧✨

We’re thrilled to share that we have finished plastering the office and installed the windows! Every step forward is a testament to your incredible support. We are also working on completing the fence, and once it’s done, we can’t wait to share photos of everything!

Even more exciting—we’ve managed to build a permanent shelter for the same cost as a tent, making this a truly long-term, sustainable solution.

We are so blessed, and we cannot thank you enough. Thank you, thank you, thank you! ❤️🙏



Let me know if you’d like any final tweaks!

🌟 A Mother, A Leader, A Beacon of Strength 🌟
Being a mother to a child with a disability can be isolating, and filled with emotional struggles and societal rejection. But one incredible woman in our community has turned her challenges into a source of strength—not just for herself, but for others.

As the chairman of our mothers' group, she supports and uplifts parents daily. Before every clinic, she checks in, offers encouragement, and ensures no mother feels alone. Through counselling, kind words, and a helping hand, she is a pillar of hope.

In 2025, we look forward to seeing her impact grow—leading savings circles, reaching more families, and standing beside mothers on their journeys. She knows the pain of isolation but refuses to let it define her. Instead, she is a force for change, a beacon of love and resilience.

💙 To all the mothers navigating this journey—you are not alone. 💙
