what we do for the families

At Imprint Hope, we are convinced that a family is truly a place where a child’s life can be protected against the many attacks to which it is exposed. Therefore, we empower families through microfinance training and counseling.

ABOUT OUR FOUNDER

Clare Byrne was born and raised in northern New Jersey and graduated from Seton Hall University with her Masters degree in Occupational Therapy in 2012. Ever since Clare could remember, God had etched in her heart the desire to serve children with disabilities. Growing up, Clare experienced firsthand the beauty and dignity of each person, particularly from her own sister, who has a disability.

In 2013, Clare traveled to Uganda with Catholic Medical Mission Board to volunteer as an Occupational Therapist. Clare witnessed children being abused, neglected, and abandoned by their own parents, due to the stigma of disabilities. Some parents would lock their child away because they didn’t have resources or know where to go for help. Many parents were told their child was better left for dead.

After that initial year volunteering in Uganda, Clare knew God was calling her to do more. In 2016, Clare founded Imprint Hope to serve the most marginalized and neglected of Ugandan society, children with disabilities.

Over the past couple of years, Imprint Hope has inspired hope, shared truth, and empowered change for children with disabilities and their families living throughout Uganda.
