The Smallholder farming project aims to strengthen the resilience of 100 extremely poor families, 250 adults and 450 children, in order to sustainably lift them out of multidimensional poverty. Beneficiaries will be provided with livelihood skills training and an in-kind grant to start an income-generating activity. The project includes the provision of nutritional support and access to water and medical care, together with a schooling program enabling out-of-school children to be educated and giving young people access to vocational training. Children and caregivers will also be provided with psychosocial support, in the form of individual, couple and group counselling in order to help them deal with the health and social consequences of poverty, illness and trauma.
The Charitable Incorporated Community Organization Uganda was founded in 2018. Its mission is to fight poverty and AIDS by helping orphans and vulnerable children affected HIV/AIDS, and by strengthening the social and economic capacities of their families and communities.
