Owing to war, HIV/AIDS and other diseases have left many children without parents in Northern Uganda.

These children are often taken care of within the extended family, but the lack of money often means they cannot go to school.

There are approximately 1.6 million orphans living in Uganda.

We are sponsoring children to go to school. All the children we are sponsoring do not have a mother or father. Many have never been to school even though some are in their teens. We now have over 30 children and have plans to sponsor more.
Primary school education is supposed to be free in Uganda, but many don't have access and can't afford to pay for essential requirements such as books and uniforms. Secondary school education can be very expensive. For many people it can be more than their income.
Despite living in the midst of war and difficulties the majority of the children on the programme want to be teachers, doctors and lawyers.

A donation of £5 per month would fund 1 child in primary school for a month, and £25 per month for secondary school for one year.

You can choose to either support a child over the duration of a school year by filling out a standing order mandate, or a one off payment by cheque or direct bank transfer. See contacts page or donations. Any support is greatly appreciated.
