About Us
Located in one of Kampala’s most prominent slums, Hope for Katanga Kids Project sets out to assist children and families who are confronting the challenges of living in Katanga slum.
With many kids at-risk and struggling parents, Hope for Katanga Kids Project aims for a multi-faceted approach to development that includes 3 major components: developing the family unit, access to education, and Christian discipleship.
Family Development: There is nothing more dignifying for parents than when they can provide for their children. Whether it is helping them save money or search for employment, Hope for Katanga Kids Project seeks to enable parents to feed, clothe, and educate their children.
Education: Especially for children living in a slum, education is the key to a more hopeful future. However, education is not free in Uganda and school fees are the biggest obstacle standing in the way of a child’s education. As we work closely alongside parents/caregivers, Hope for Katanga Kids Project provides supplementary scholarships for kids in need of education.
Christian Discipleship: We acknowledge that full restoration is only possible through an authentic relationship with Jesus Christ. Hope for Katanga Kids Project wants to ensure that kids and parents know the truth of the gospel and are engaging in the Kingdom of Heaven.
