My name is Eddy Mpoya Kiirya, founder of HAU together with Esther Maria Haaisma. My profession is water engineer. I set up this organization with the aim of helping the orphans and the needy families in the communities. My heart desire is to setup a school which will help the disadvantaged children. My Motivation is 1 Samuel 2:8 that the Lord lifts the poor from the dust and makes them sit with princes. I hope that these children will be able to occupy places of honour when helped and assisted.
