At hope for the needy foundation, we are dedicated to empowering communities through sustainable development programs that transform lives. Since our establishment in 2021 in Uganda, we have focused on improving the wellbeing of children, youth, and women by addressing critical issues such as maternal and child health, gender based violence, environmental sustainability, water and sanitation, education, and economic empowerment.
With a strong commitment to integrity, accountability, and justice, we work hand in hand with the community members, government agencies and international partners to drive sustainable change.
From providing safe water solutions to advocating for the rights of adolescent mothers, our programs are designed to address the root causes of poverty and inequality.
Our mission is to improve the lives of underserved communities through capacity building, service delivery, advocacy, and information sharing. We believe in a society where every individual has a voice in decisions affecting their lives and access to the necessary resources to thrive
Hope for the Needy Foundation is actively involved in multiple initiatives aimed at transforming lives. Our ongoing projects include:
Hope for the Needy Foundation is implementing an evidence-based holistic and multi-sectoral two-year project; sexual and reproductive health and economic empowerment supporting out-of-school adolescent girl’s rights and skills, with a goal of achieving gender transformation and sustainable change.
Working with partners, our organization has assessed the guidelines for prevention and management of teenage pregnancies in school settings in Uganda; effectiveness, implementation and dissemination gaps, produced and disseminated the research findings.
In Uganda, marriage is still common among young girls. A report of UNFPA indicated that the prevalence of child marriages is at 41% in Central Uganda. Arranged marriages for adolescent girls without their consent are common practice especially in rural areas accounting for 24% of girls giving birth earlier than girls in urban areas (21%).
We use education as a tool to prevent child marriages; we equip victims of teenage pregnancy, girls, and young women with technical skills to start up their small businesses.
We are implementing the education project for the girls that aims at contributing to a reduction in child marriages through supporting school enrolment and skilling of vulnerable children, girls and women in the country, Uganda. The project supports schools’ enrolment and retention of girls in schools equipping the young women with tailoring skills, knowledge and startup equipment by 2026.
Since its establishment in 2021, our organization has implemented impactful projects aimed at social transformation. Some of our past projects include:
The project aimed at empowering victims of child, early/forced marriages with comprehensive and appropriate information on life skills and alternative income generating activities, rights information among out-of-school youth and supporting women to adopt climate smart agricultural practices to minimize land degradation and increase production in Mukono, Mpigi, and Wakiso districts.
This project aimed at providing the people in the communities and schools clean and safe water for use.
Uganda holds high maternal mortality rates, which is often reflective of access to healthcare services. Ugandan women seek to handle birth on their own as it is a time when they can use their own power and their own decisions leading to high maternal mortality rate. Our organization implemented a project aimed at contributing to equitable access to quality maternal health care services among women in the central region of Uganda.
