New Begininings International Ministries
We rescue and empower women and children in Uganda.
The East-African nation of Uganda is still recovering from a crippling AIDS epidemic and the ravages of war, which together, killed millions and left additional millions of children orphaned. Since 2009, under the direction of founder, Isoba Henry Caesar, New Beginnings has been on the ground providing humanitarian aid and comfort to impoverished and threatened women and children.

Healthcare Clinic
In Uganda, 95 percent of the population lives in rural, resource-challenged areas and 80% of Ugandan women (in regions with high birthrates) have limited access to appropriate care. The leading cause of death for Ugandan girls ages 15-18 is pregnancy, and 20% of maternal deaths are caused by abortion-related complications.
New Beginnings is working to meet both the near-term and long-term health needs of Uganda’s at-risk mothers and children through making healthcare more readily available, including through ultrasound services.
With a recent generous gift, the construction of our first health clinic is mostly completed. All that is lacking is the connection for the utilities and the utility installation. The cost for this final phase $25,000, and we are seeking a generous donor to help us compete the construction so we can open the clinic. The ministry is also presently actively seeking donors willing to step forward with gifts to be earmarked for ultrasound and other medical gear to equip the new clinic. If you can help, please visit our donate page and add the word CLINIC in the “In Honor Of” field of our donation form.
Ruth House
To accomplish our life-saving mission as efficiently as possible, in early 2020, New Beginnings established RUTH HOUSE, a 6-room, 12-bed women’s shelter for vulnerable women and girls who are pregnant and homeless or pregnant and threatened with starvation or violence. Mary, (read her full story here), was on the run from her family. Mary and her unborn child had been threatened with violence and death. Once at RUTH HOUSE, the fear on Mary’s face turned to relief. Mary knew she was safe.
RUTH HOUSE residents are secured within a walled compound and provided with a bed, food, water, electric light, food prep area, prenatal vitamins and care by our resident Nurse/Midwife. Ruth House also provides vocational training and study opportunities for the residents so that when they leave, they can support themselves and their families.
Although RUTH HOUSE was very effective in providing all the needs of these mothers during their pregnancy, RUTH HOUSE had to close in December of 2022 due to lack of funding. Mothers are now taken care of on an individual basis as resources allow. However, with adequate ongoing support, we look forward to the day RUTH HOUSE can be re-established to support the homeless pregnant mothers of the community.
