Our Impact
2024 was a year of transition and reflection but through it all the Comboni Missionaries worked to help those who are often forgotten. Many are living on the edges of society with little hope and lots of worry. Because of you we were able to make a difference in their lives.
The kids living in the slums and literal garbage dump in Nairobi, were given options—food, not scraped from the local trash can—places to go to school and most importantly they were shown that people do care.
In the West Nile region where doctors and medical professionals are so scarce many have to travel hundreds of miles to receive care, our donors contributed to the education of future doctors, nurses and mid-wives to lesson this burden and provide more medical professionals in the area.
The impact of your time, talents and contributions is difficult to measure but is extremely impactful.
I hope you take a few moments to review the information in this report and to pat yourself on the back. Because of you a difference has been made in the lives of thousands. Thank you!
With gratitude and blessings,
– Rev. Ruffino Ezama, mccj

Sharing Our Gifts
Safety, access to nutritious food, and education are things often taken for granted in the United States. When Sr. Betty reached out asking for financial assistance to purchase simple necesities — like food, medicine, and school supplies — we gladly helped.
Because so many people around the world rely on our missions and generosity, our staff works hard to make sure that 95 cents out of every dollar goes directly to programs, projects, and ministries.
Your Kindness Made a Difference
Because of you, Fr. Justin Muvawa, mccj can now support families in Congo, devestated by conflict and violence.
Because of you, we helped vulnerable women in Malawi, providing them access to milling equipment and saving them a long, arduous journey.
Because of you, South Sudanese refugees living in Egypt now have community and support.
