Educating 1000 Ugandan children
Educating children is the first step towards ensuring a bright future for the younger generation. This is why we provide free quality education to children who have lost their parents and/or those that have been victimized by marital instability and domestic violence.
Providing reusable sanitary pads
Abject poverty is so extreme in some areas that young girls can’t be able to afford reusable sanitary pads; resulting into missing school and consequently dropping out. Therefore, we step in and donate reusable sanitary pads to those that can’t afford them.
The Clean Water Project
Through constructing boreholes in most villages, we aim at providing a longterm solution to the problem of water scarcity; thus making people’s lives easier, hence making them live longer and healthier lives. This is especially common in Northern Uganda.
