About Us
Defending the Orphan, Pleading for the Widow
To “redeem” is to take something that has been lost, broken, stolen, or destroyed and to restore it to everything that it was created to be.
Our Mission
Redeem International exists to protect widows and orphans from violent abuse and exploitation.
Our Story
Juliet Musoke and Jesse Rudy first worked together at International Justice Mission in 2009, leading a pilot program to protect widows and orphans in Central Uganda. The project was incredibly successful, leading to an 80% drop in land theft rates.
Redeem deployed its first intervention team in Gulu, Uganda in late 2020. We deployed our second team in Wakiso in late 2021. In 2022, we deployed additional teams in Iganga and Mbale. Our Lira team was deployed in late 2023. And in 2024 we deployed teams in Arua and Soroti.

Redeem employs over 75 staff members, 100% of whom are nationals in the countries where they work.
