President and Founder
Hannah Muller lives in Philadelphia, PA. She was a girl scout for a decade and has always enjoyed volunteering and helping those less fortunate. Her grandfather was a Minister and instilled the values of helping others, and the importance of ministry work from a very early age. Her inspiration for initiating Child Crisis Center Uganda started when she came in contact with Zalambi Joseph through Facebook in May of 2016. After forming a friendship with Zalambi, she learned of the terrible poverty that the children in Uganda are subjected to every day. Hannah became passionate about transforming the children's lives and was able to start up the 501(c)(3) non profit organization with help from her boss, family, and friends.

training with the teachers. I got to know the children, the parents and the parents' council of the school and the residents of the community and recognized the importance of the school for all these people.The commitment and love with which work is done there spurred me to continue my work back in Germany.
I am a teacher by training, worked for many years as a school principal, in teacher training and curriculum development. After my training as a coach, I worked as a consultant for schools and daycare centers for the German Children and Youth Foundation.
