One month ago, we visited this family of over 20 children who live with their old granny. Today, however, the granny was away as she had gone to look for what the kids will eat. I found them preparing local maize only as their food. In Africa, we all know that maize(posho) alone is not food; instead, it is just an additive (filler) but not food. Yet, it’s what I found being prepared for these little kids. The first time JFM visited this family, I gave them two sacks of rice worth 110 lbs, but today, it wasn’t the case as I distributed the rice to everyone in the neighborhood. We realized that it is not good only to give or bless one family when others are looking with “WHY THOSE EYES”? so we provide all as long as they get an equal share depending on the total of family members.
Since we started three months ago, this ministry has blessed over 500 families, serving between 8 to 10 families per day.
JFM chooses to feed the hungry, loving them and giving them hope of JESUS. You can be part of this ministry, and you feed a family with food with the initial $79, which provides about ten families for a week.

William J. Wegener (Bill) is the founder and director of JesusFedMe.com, a ministry with a simple yet powerful mission: to feed the hungry, share the gospel of JESUS CHRIST, and transform lives in Uganda. Bill believes that meeting both physical and spiritual needs is the best way to reflect the love of GOD, and through JFM, countless lives have been touched.
Under his leadership, JesusFedMe.com has:
Delivered food daily to poor families and orphans. | Dug wells to provide clean water to villages. | Built homes and resource centers for struggling communities. |. Established the Miracle Medical Center (MMC) in Nakaseke District, providing medical care where none was available. |. Launched the CVTI Skilling Center, offering vocational training and hope for the future.
Bill’s heart for the poor flows from the words of JESUS in Matthew 25:35: “For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in.” He often says that every bag of rice delivered, every child clothed, and every prayer offered is a reminder that GOD’s love is real and practical.
None of this would be possible without faithful donors who give generously. Bill sees himself not just as a director, but as a steward—ensuring that every dollar makes a difference in feeding the hungry and leading souls to CHRIST. His vision is to see communities in Uganda transformed, both physically and spiritually, through the power of the gospel and the kindness of those who support the work.
