UMOYA MINISTRIES IS WORKING TO RESCUE CHILDREN FROM A LIFE ON THE STREETS IN UGANDA
OUR MISSION
Umoya is working to rescue children from the streets of Uganda. We rescue, rehabilitate and reconcile street-connected children with their families. We have a strong belief in the right for all children to have access to an education and a safe place to call home so they grow to reach their full potential.
We run regular outreaches in Kampala and provide access for the children to medical care, hot meals and support. Our outreach helps us to identify children who are ready to leave street life behind.
Child resettlement is where a child is successfully re-united with existing family members or close relatives. We believe that child resettlement is the best option for a child rescued from the street.
Our family support program involves us working directly with the families of the children we have rescued. We provide small business training, seed money for new businesses, food packages, rental assistance and emergency medical care when needed.
Education is a big part of what we do in Uganda. Education is the key to lifting children and entire families out of poverty. Our child sponsorship program enables us to give children access to Primary, Secondary, Tertiary education and vocational training.
