Empower and Educate Vulnerable Ugandan Girls
Organization information
Uganda Hands for Hope
Location: Kampala, Uganda
Summary
Imagine a girl, the daughter of an abusive, alcoholic mother, feeling left with no option to feed herself other than prostitution. Girls like this roam the rat-infested, flooded alleys of Kampala's Namuwongo slum every day, scavenging for food and searching for shelter. Uganda Hands for Hope aims to alleviate their poverty and facilitate lasting change in the lives of the most vulnerable children and families living in Namuwongo through education, health and livelihood programs.
