Our Beginning
GREAT PEACE FOR AFRICA was born from personal experience and a calling to serve — expanding from Tanzania to communities across Africa.
Before 2019
After losing both his parents, Pastor Laurent Bwire experienced the challenges of being an orphan firsthand, and with community support, learned the power of compassion in action.
2019
A small ministry began to help orphans using modest personal income — a seed that would later grow beyond national borders.
2021
An organization dedicated to helping orphans and vulnerable children took shape, establishing core programs and structure.
Today
We serve children and families across multiple African regions with education, healthcare, nutrition, spiritual care — and now, job placement and skills training for adults and youth.
“Our vision is a peaceful, supportive Africa where every child can reach their full potential — and every family can thrive with dignity through opportunity.”
