Due to high levels of poverty in Uganda, many families have no access to decent shelter. We serve in marginalized and rural areas that have scarce access to quality education and support for vulnerable populations, namely orphaned children. Therefore, our time is spent caring for the critically needy and disadvantaged children who lack adequate food, proper shelter, and healthcare. These children also require an education that can ensure they thrive as individuals who are able to contribute to a strong and prosperous future for Uganda.
COVID-19 all over the world has made situations worse for rural households including the elderly, orphans and single mothers with young children. The pandemic forced us all to seek refuge at home. But for millions, that simply wasn’t possible. These low-income families have no stable source of income and are unable to build a house of their own. This coming year we are pleased to share that we will be able to build a safe house for a deserving family. This will offer protection from indecent exposure due to bathing outside, will limit access to rodents and disease, reduce the risk of theft and invasion, and shelter the students from unpredictable weather.
