Hezekia S. Mwalugaja;
Hezekia is Founder and Executive Director of Hananasif Orphanage Centre. He lives at the Center with his wife, two daughters and one son. Hezekia and his family have dedicated their lives to the orphanage and its children since its establishment nine years ago.
Hezekia strongly believes that the two issues- Orphans and Poverty- should be addressed and handled separately; They are two different phenomena of which have to have independent solutions and strategies.
He believes that the most difficult moment for orphaned children is when they are going through maturity, when they painfully feel the absence of significant people who can guide them through the challenges of life and growing up. Hezekia has built an organization that hopes to guide them through these troubled times.
