Project Report | Oct 20, 2025
Your gift brings girls home, hope, and a future

By Tumwesigye Abdallah Zake | project leader

Over the past few months, your generosity has continued to light the way for vulnerable families in Kabale and surrounding communities. With your support, we’ve reached over 120 families with critical health and hope interventions—restoring dignity, improving well-being, and strengthening community bonds.

Health Outreach Highlights

  • Reusable Pads Distributed: 100+ girls and women received reusable menstrual hygiene kits, reducing school absenteeism and promoting dignity.
  • Clinic Support: We partnered with two local health centers to provide basic supplies and health education, especially around maternal health and child nutrition.
  • Home Visits: Our team visited 45 homes to check on elderly and sick individuals, delivering care packages and messages of hope.

Education & Empowerment

  • School Supplies: 200 children received books, pens, and uniforms—many returning to school with pride and confidence.
  • Mentorship Sessions: Volunteers led life skills workshops and storytelling circles, helping youth build resilience and dream bigger.
  • Community Debates: We hosted a school debate on the importance of education, sparking powerful conversations and renewed commitment.

Livelihood & Food Security

  • Farming Tools Distributed: 50 families in Muyumbu received hoes and seeds to boost household food production.
  • Zero Grazing Cow Project: We launched a pilot initiative to support sustainable dairy farming—bringing hope and income to single mothers.

Community Connection & Celebration

  • We held a vibrant community celebration with music, dance, and storytelling to honor the progress made and the lives touched.
  • Volunteers and beneficiaries shared reflections, strengthening the spirit of unity and gratitude.

Gratitude & Next Steps

Your support is not just changing lives—it’s building a movement of compassion and empowerment. As we look ahead, we aim to:

  • Expand our menstrual hygiene program to reach 500 more girls
  • Build a second shelter for a vulnerable woman and her children
  • Launch a youth leadership and storytelling initiative

We are deeply grateful for your continued belief in this mission. Every donation, message, and share helps us reach one more family with health and hope.

With heartfelt thanks,
Tumwesigye Abdallah Zake
Director, Candles of Hope Uganda
