This is the story of baby Immaculate. She was prematurely born on May 12, 2021, by an underage teen and given to a nurse for care and referred to Amukura for ongoing care.
After two months, the baby's family started demanding Immaculate's return home, and the matter was referred to the children's department and later proceeded to court. The court ruled the child to be under institutional care at Amukura for one year while they investigated.
Today the family wants the child back, but the child will remain in our protection because the mom has never visited the child as per the court order.
We're grateful that this little girl is happy and receiving loving care. We hope Immaculate and other children like her will be able to be reunited with safe and loving family members in time.
We're grateful that we can love and care for these children thanks to the support of our donors.
