Our Projects
01
Violence Against Women (VAW) Storytelling Project
The VAW Storytelling Project uses narrative-driven workshops to raise awareness about gender-based violence (GBV) and empower survivors. It provides a platform for women to share their experiences, fostering community dialogue and healing.
02
Girl Yogela
The Girl Yogela Program focuses on empowering girls aged 8-15 by educating them on menstrual health, hygiene, body safety, and defilement prevention. Through workshops, girls are taught about their bodies, menstrual cycle tracking, and how to protect themselves from defilement. The program provides reusable sanitary pads to ensure access to safe menstrual products, addressing both health and economic barriers. It also aims to reduce stigma around menstruation and sexual violence, fostering a supportive environment where girls feel empowered to speak out about abuse and know how to seek help. Community outreach and legal referrals are also key components of the program.
03
Widows Support Project
The Widows Support Project provides comprehensive assistance to elderly widows, addressing both their physical and emotional needs. Widows receive monthly sponsorship, including essential bed kits (beds, mattresses, bedding) and food packages, as well as water. The project also supports widows' health needs by providing assistance with medical care and facilitating weekly visits to help with personal hygiene tasks such as bathing and washing clothes. To combat loneliness and isolation, the project offers pastoral care twice a month, promoting mental and spiritual well-being. Through these efforts, the Widows Support Project aims to improve the quality of life for elderly widows, ensuring they feel supported, valued, and connected to their communities.
04
Advocacy Centre
Our Advocacy Centre serves as a multi-service hub providing legal, medical, psychological, and educational support to women and girls, particularly those affected by gender-based violence (GBV) and sexual abuse.
By offering legal consultations, medical care, and counseling services, the centre aims to empower women and girls to navigate their rights and access justice. The centre will also advocate for policy and legal reforms to better protect women and girls from violence and discrimination.
05
Maternal Health
In Uganda, pregnancy and childbirth can be risky for many women due to limited access to quality healthcare. Our Maternal Health Project works to make births safer by providing essential “Mama Kits” to women in their third trimester. Each kit contains the supplies needed for a clean and safe delivery. Alongside this, our trained midwife offers antenatal education, covering health, wellbeing, and childbirth preparation, empowering mothers with the knowledge and support they need for a healthy pregnancy and safe delivery.
06
Her Health (Obulamu Bwe)
Our HerHealth (Obulamu Bwe) Workshops are a monthly series dedicated to empowering women in villages with knowledge about their health. Through interactive sessions, we cover important topics such as cervical cancer, heart health, menstruation, menopause, and more, equipping women to understand their bodies, make informed choices, and advocate for their own wellbeing.
07
Women's Skills Training Project
The Women's Skills Training Project equips vulnerable women with practical, income-generating abilities to foster financial independence and reduce poverty. Through hands-on workshops in trade crafts, enterprise development, and production techniques, participants gain the tools needed to build sustainable livelihoods. The program provides mentorship and resources to help women launch small businesses, improve household economic security, and strengthen self-reliance within their communities.
