IN BRIEF.

We Work with Children's Homes Under Lukwago CARE Foundation which has now 49 children, we also empower women with Bisuness skills like Book Keeping, Saving & practical business management skills, we also have women groups that supply us with crafts and hand made mats which sell abroad and in return support women entrepreneurship in Uganda there by empowering women. Some of our children are from streets and we offer them with counseling & guidance, we deal with children that lost both parents to HIV/AIDS, some were found Abandoned and children from poor homes. The foundation needs funding, the children need school fees and food. Help Us Build Premises For Shelter to our children in Eastern Uganda. Thanks.

The foundation also started a Football/ Soccer Program for our foundation, we play soccer with community children and the major aim is to keep them away from drugs and crimes with an aim of putting all their focus on football/ soccer also teaching them to be responsible citizens. After realizing that some of the children were not attending school, we decided to start a soccer Academy to groom their talent & keep them busy. After most of the teenagers going into drugs and criminal gangs, we have decided to save the next generation of children by designing a football program to keep them busy in a positive way instead of going into drugs. The football or soccer Academy is called Kireka Football Club Academy and has now kids aged 5-15 whose future is now promising in sports.
