Sponsor a child in Uganda/PCS

Uganda, an East Africa country, comprises of 21 million children, translating to 46%of the total population.   Many of these children are trapped in poverty and are not able to access education. This is especially true with children from the Kisoro area who have been orphaned due to the aids pandemic and the constant wars in our neighboring countries of DRC and Rwanda especially the 1994 Genocide.

This situation has been made worse by Covid-19 pandemic, where some parents lost their business / jobs due to prolonged lockdown and the long closure of schools that exposed many children to abuse and exploitation.  Many even lost their lives.

According to UNICEF, around 1 in 10 school children did not return to school in January 2022 after schools were closed for nearly two years. 

Out of the 91% children that enroll for primary school, 53% complete primary and only 34% complete secondary school.

Our sponsorship program through Christian efforts against poverty supports children from poor and vulnerable backgrounds to enrol, keep in school and complete their education. We provide children with school fees and other school needs as well as supporting children and their families to becomes economically self reliant. 

We focus on children from pre-school to higher institutions of learning – giving children a life time opportunity to support themselves, their families and the community where they leave. This year 2026 we will have one of our children graduate with a bachelor of social work and social administration from kabale university.

We can only do this with support of people like you – who commit to contribute monthly, termly or yearly to ensure a children enrol, stay in school and complete their education.
