In Uganda you may be greeted with a handshake on one knee!
Home to the source of the Nile and located on the equator, Uganda is a nation rich in diversity that sadly experiences many civil and social challenges. According to the International Fund for Agricultural Development, 84 percent of Ugandans live in rural areas where children often lack access to quality education, proper nutrition and health care. Additionally, a UNICEF report found that Uganda has one of the largest orphan populations per capita of any country in the world.
That is why One More Child has partnered with an amazing local ministry to build a medical clinic and school buildings into a private Christian school that provides quality education and nutrition to poor children. Lives in Uganda are changing thanks to the educational resources, nutritious food and spiritual support provided!
