VOLUNTEERS PROGRAM.

Volunteers are extremely important to aid the development of our organization, without you and others like you; our organization wouldn’t simply exist. Volunteers also help us find supports for our kids and the vulnerable helpless that are under our care and getting involved in fundraising for causes and doing some community work/outreach.

Volunteering requires flexibility and patience. People who actually respect the host people and their culture are best for this. Volunteers come and share their skills, experience, energy and sparing some time with our children.

 

 We strive to create make our project with an atmosphere that emphasizes teamwork; mutual support and enthusiasm for our mission as such eagerly invite you to become involved in the events and activities which support the overall operation of our organization.

If you are interested in volunteering with us contact us at heart4humanity54@gmail.com

 

Funding for the Center comes from a few of sources per now. International volunteers from Canada, USA, UK and Germany have spent time with us and have contributed their resources and time to Heart4Humanity-Uganda.  Modest contributions from guardians who are able to afford to do so are another source of funding for the organization. 

 

We’re actively seeking additional funding from corporations, companies, philanthropists, international NGO, Churches and also exploring the avenue of foreign based foundation grants. 

Projects:

·         Feeding program.-providing food to vulnerable children and others in our communities who can’t afford a plate on their tables. On this we are looking forward achieving the “ZERO HUNGER” goal as addressed by the United Nations “SDGS-2”

·         Education- Provide formal primary education and getting sponsors.

·         Health care- Treatment of opportunistic infections, HIV/AID prevention and education, counseling and guidance, referrals and psychosocial support.

·         Care and support- Providing clothing's, bedding and constructing small houses for orphans without homes.

 

 Over hundreds of children and helpless people in our communities are enrolled in our program. Children are provided with education, food, scholastic material, medication clothes, and assess to clean and safe water.

 

 We are very keen to hear from anyone interested in joining and donating time for the benefit of the children and the entire organization. As feeding, health care, shelter and education are of paramount importance, we would like to hear from anyone willing to promote food security, good health care services, and emergency responses and prevent illness in our communities.
