Our Team

Isoba Henry Caesar, (pictured on the left) brings his own personal story and passion to the work of creating a great new beginning for the people of this East African nation, by rescuing at-risk women, babies and orphaned children from death, violence and ignorance.

As a newborn, Isoba Henry was abandoned and left to die at a garbage dump — but God, it seems, had other plans. Thanks to local police, little Henry was delivered into the hands of an adoptive American couple who raised Henry as their own. His parents brought him up as a Christian, put him through school and sowed within his heart the seeds of greatness.

Henry explains, “I was rescued from death. Now, to give back to my nation, I want to rescue others as well; offering them life, safety, education and hope for the future.”

And this is precisely what he has done. Since 2009 when he founded the organization (called NewBim, for short), Henry and his team of volunteers have been working to save lives and build futures. Recently, an area police commander heard about the work Henry and his team had done to save the life of an orphaned baby (who had nearly died in a fire). The police commander said, “If we had more others, dedicated and faithful people like those of New Beginnings, our entire country would be safe.”After saying this, he prayed that God would bless New Beginnings with an endless stream of support so that more lives would be saved and more bright futures would be created.
