People, place and practical support
Standing with refugee families in Uganda.
Uganda is home to refugee settlements including Nakivale and Kyangwali. These two communities are a stated focus of OWAID's work with orphans, widows and families rebuilding their lives after displacement.
A child's education, a secure home and access to health care are connected. OWAID's approach places family wellbeing at the centre of support, recognising the role of parents, relatives and caregivers in helping children grow.
Our Christian faith calls us to serve with compassion and respect for every person's dignity, regardless of belief or background. Contact OWAID to discuss current outreach in Uganda, practical needs and ways to participate.
