Save Africa's Children is an organization that helps children who have been orphaned by the AIDS/HIV pandemic, war, and poverty in sub-saharan Africa. The main programs of the organization are the SAC Medical Clinic in Kenya, and the Mpudulle Day Care Center in Johannesburg.

The SAC Medical Clinic caters to thousands of children in the area who have received little to no medical care before their first visit to the clinic. Mpudulle Day Care Center provides early childhood education to the most vulnerable children in one of the harshest communities in the South African townships.

Universal Outreach partners with Save Africa's Children in an effort to change the conditions in sub-saharan Africa and provide hope and a future to Africa's youth.

LIFE Outreach International's Water for LIFE program is made possible by partners like Universal Outreach who have compassion for nearly one billion people who lack clean drinking water worldwide.

This program utilizes portable drilling rigs to dig wells up to 1,000 feet deep in even the hardest to reach areas of Africa, Asia and South America to provide much needed clean drinking water to communities.

This year, Water for LIFE plans to accomplish their goal of establishing 370 new water wells in 24 nations. We are monthly partners and are working towards digging one well next year.

The home of Irmo Gang Out, this ministry is an alternative program that is designed to enrich the lives of the youth of our community through educational, social, cultural, and religious programs. The ministry touches the lives of dozens of community youth weekly.
