Mission Statement
To confront poverty and social injustice in Uganda, through the education and empowerment of its most vulnerable children and their families.
About This Cause
Children of Uganda (COU) was founded in 1995 as a registered non-profit with the focus of supporting orphans affected by HIV/AIDS through education, social welfare and life skills development. COU has directly sponsored 1,500+ students and has aided thousands more youth and their families through child protection advocacy, infrastructure improvements to partner schools, access to healthcare and family empowerment initiatives. We understand that a sustainable path of transformation must include the child, guardian and their community. In our Family Empowerment Program, sponsored students and their guardians rise together – becoming socially and economically self-sufficient, as well as contributing to positive and lasting community development. We believe that the chains of poverty and the cycle of dependency can and will be broken by creating partnership opportunities that result in multi-generational progress. Our Vision: To realize a future for Uganda where all orphans and other vulnerable children (OVC) have access to quality education and livelihood support. To invest in families so that they may develop the necessary skills to become responsible and self-sustaining.
