Caritas Arua Diocese
“Caritas is a Latin word meaning charity or love for the poor.”
Caritas Arua Diocese started in 1986 as a relief office after the return of refugees from Congo and Sudan. By that time Caritas’ main services were to give out food and tents but due to increased demand for food, Social Services Development (SSD) now Caritas turned its services into provision of farm tools and agricultural inputs.
Have life in its fullness” (Jn 10:10) Build charitable and more just world where everybody can live in peace and enjoy full human dignity.
To bare witnesses to God’s love. To work and share the vision of spreading charity, peace, social justice and integral development, thus translating the Christian message of love of neighbor, compassion and solidarity in the contemporary actions for the sake of the poor and needy in our society.
