Mr. and Mrs. Bosco Mukholi are the founders of Str8way Child Rescue center-based Manafwa District in Uganda. They received a calling to go back to their local communities and serve particularly the Orphaned and vulnerable children.
They began their work way back in 2013 and later on registered the ministry in the year 2015 under the Ugandan Government as a non-profit making organization.
For Bosco and Nancy Mukholi, it was not about the wealth they since they started very simple and didn’t even have enough for their family. Theirs is a true story of dedication, commitment and clear call from God to stand in for vulnerable children.
A quiet but powerful stirring began in the hearts of Bosco and Nancy, a vision born from witnessing the silent suffering of children left motherless at birth. Where others saw tragedy, Bosco and Nancy saw a divine invitation: to become a vessel of hope, healing, and transformation.
Their intention was not to start and orphanage but rather a child rescue center. At SWCRC, vulnerable or orphaned children are taken care of in a situation where a parent dies during birth, in cases of malnutrition or the child being in a very unhealthy environment that will prevent them from having a suitable environment for proper child development
The Call to Rescue began with one child. Then another. Each baby rescued after the loss of their mother during childbirth became a sacred trust. The Mukholi’s, moved by compassion and scripture, stepped into the gap—offering not just shelter but a home infused with prayer, love, and dignity.
The children stay at the rescue center for a while and then they are taken back to the community when they are stable. Support to such children goes on especially in areas of Education, health care and mentorship.
Recognizing that true rescue goes beyond survival, Bosco and Nancy championed quality education as a pathway to restoration. Makeshift classrooms turned into structured learning spaces. Volunteers became teachers. And each lesson was a seed of hope planted in young hearts.
From the beginning, the ministry was never just physical—it was deeply spiritual. Bible studies, worship gatherings, and one-on-one discipleship became the rhythm of daily life. Children learned not only to read and write, but to pray, forgive, and dream again. Emotional wounds are met with empathy, storytelling, and the healing presence of Christ.
