                <p>Founded in 2010, our journey began with a simple calling: to restore hope where it was lost.</p>
                <p>Wipe Tears Africa was founded in response to the devastating effects of poverty, illiteracy, and health crises—including the widespread impact of HIV/AIDS—that have affected communities across Uganda.</p>
                <p>What began as a response to suffering has grown into a movement of empowerment, healing, and sustainable change.</p>
