Project Report | Oct 4, 2026
Feed a Family, Plant a Future

By Jawanghe Joseph | Project Leader

When a family is hungry, immediate food assistance is essential. But when we want to create lasting change, we must also help families gain the knowledge and resources they need to produce food for themselves.

This is the approach Good Cause Foundation Uganda wants to support in vulnerable communities across Karamoja.

The latest 2026 IPC assessment indicates that 473,000 people in Karamoja are facing Crisis or Emergency levels of acute food insecurity, while approximately 122,100 children aged 6–59 months are projected to face acute malnutrition.

Approximately 30,600 young children are projected to experience severe acute malnutrition, demonstrating the urgent need for support.

We are appealing to GlobalGiving donors to help us respond to both the immediate and longer-term dimensions of the crisis.

Your donation can help provide food packages to families facing hunger. It can also contribute toward seeds, farming skills, agricultural knowledge and other appropriate resources that can help families produce food and strengthen their resilience.

We believe every family deserves the opportunity not only to receive food during a crisis but also to work toward a future where they can produce and access food more reliably.

Objectives:

  • Provide emergency food packages.
  • Support vulnerable children and families.
  • Reach communities affected by food insecurity in Karamoja.
  • Provide seeds and agricultural resources.
  • Strengthen practical farming skills.
  • Improve household food-production capacity.
  • Promote sustainable food-security solutions.
  • Support families toward greater resilience and self-reliance.

Feed a family today. Plant the seeds of hope for tomorrow.

Your support can help us respond to hunger now while investing in a stronger and more food-secure future.
