RESCUING CHILDREN FROM A LIFE ON THE STREETS
WHY ARE CHILDREN LIVING ON THE STREET?
Many children end up running to the streets due to an unstable family environment. Extreme poverty can lead to the breakdown of a family unit which can force a child to run from home, or children are exploited by their own families and are sent to beg or work to earn money. In Kampala alone, there are over 15,000 children living and working on the street.

BUILDING A CHILD RESETTLEMENT
HOME IN UGANDA
We are currently fundraising to buy land to build a child resettlement home in Uganda. We need to raise around $15,000 AUD to purchase an acre of land. The land will enable us to establish a small farm and build a child resettlement home.
The home will be a place for street connected children to rehabilitate from street life and gain access to life skills to re-build their future. Our farm will enable us to cut down on food costs, run farming programs and give us excess food to distribute to those who need it. Our long term goal for the home is for it to be self-sustainable as much as possible. We hope to raise chickens and goats for food and eggs and for the children to enjoy and help raise. One of our team members has experience in farming (see his farm in Mozambique on the left) so we look forward to him putting his skills to use!
Make an impact with a general gift that will be used to support our high-priority programs. This allows us to direct funds to where there is the greatest need.
