Child of Hope

Apr 17, 2019

Child of Hope is making huge improvements for slum children and their families from its school in Eastern Uganda.

The charity provides free education, healthcare, welfare, food and clothing to children from the poorest and most vulnerable families. Helping their mothers start a small business also helps lift the whole family out of the worst excesses of poverty.

Their work takes place in the Namatala slum near Mbale, where the charity has built its nursery/ primary school. Survivors from years of strife in the north struggle to make ends meet and up to 30,000 people live there, around half of which are school age.

Poverty prevents most of them going to school.

The Randal Charitable Foundation has made two grants to Child of Hope. The first in 2019, helped the charity set up secondary school by building and equipping a new school.

Through better education the charity anticipates parents’ welfare will improve, families will have greater earning capacity, and more advanced hygiene education will lead to better health and wellbeing.

The second grant in 2020 supported slum families in Uganda through the coronavirus pandemic over a 12 week period.
