Outreach Uganda
Outreach Uganda's mission is to empower poor people in Uganda, especially women and children, through education, women's empowerment, income-generation projects and micro credit loans.
We are a small but energetic organization which supports 3 primary projects in Uganda:
- Support of 2 women's groups, totaling 120 women. Most are Acholi women from the north. They are located in Jinja and Kitgum Uganda. We help market these women's paper beads and other craft products in the US, provide a child sponsorship program for their children, and provide training and assistance with business start-ups for the women using a combination of grants, loans, and savings from the women.
- Support of 3 primary schools, 1 vocational/high school and an orphanage located in Mitgyana Uganda.
- Kampala Metro program to help selected young adults in Kampala either take vocational training or start up their own business so that they can eventually become self-sustaining and provide for their family.
- People to host bead parties in the US to sell the Uganda women's paper bead necklaces.
- Funds for our revolving loan program for the Ugandan women's groups. These funds are used for both business start ups and helping the women buy their own home.
- Funds to purchase equipment, tools and supplies for the Mityana vocational school.
