• Close to 60% of Uganda’s population are children below the age of 18 years old.
• In Uganda about 81 children are orphaned every day. That’s about one child every 20 minutes!
• Currently, at least one in every four households in Uganda has an orphan.
• 15% of all children in Uganda (2.6 million) are orphans. One third of these are due to HIV/AIDS.
• Over half of Uganda’s children (8.1 million children, or, 51%) are either critically or moderately vulnerable, while 63% live with caregivers other than their biological parents.
• Every 30 minutes, an orphan in Uganda ages out of the system, entering the world without a family, source of income and, in most cases, without enough education to gain employment.

Together, we can change this by providing an education for these children.... giving them HOPE for a better future!
