For the last few months, we have been working closely with The Mango Tree, an excellent organisation who have been delivering high social impact in communities across East Africa for the last twenty years. As they look to close their UK offices, we are helping them fulfil their promise to provide free education to vulnerable children in Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda.

Last quarter, we invited students at our Tailoring and Knitting Project to a session focusing on self esteem, character development and confidence building. Here we held open discussions around building confidence in their abilities and strengths, and learning to embrace each of their uniqueness and individuality. We discussed values such as integrity and responsibility, which left the women who attended empowered, with reflections on purpose and direction. We are grateful for opportunities like these where we can have open and honest conversations which provide food for thought when we are aligning our actions and goals. #FemaleEmpowerment #SelfGrowth

Play is more than a way for children to pass the time; it's a crucial part of their development. For children living in our communities in Uganda, finding time to play when living in extreme poverty can be a real challenge. We run a series of projects that are focused on play, and giving children some space away from their difficult home lives to focus on being kids. From games, to football, to creative storytelling, play serves as a foundation for cognitive, social, emotional, and physical growth. Our latest blog discusses the importance of play in child development. Read the blog by clicking the link below. #ChildDevelopment #LearningThroughPlay

As a small, locally led charity we love for those who support us to fully understand the impact they have in Uganda. Working continents apart, it can sometimes be a challenge to demonstrate the scale and need for our work by just reading a social media post or seeing a quick video. In our latest blog our Partnerships Officer, Lauren discusses our highlights from quarter 2 of this year.
