Help A Child Through One of Our Projects

The Children's Home

Beginning as a response to poverty in the Bwindi community, the children’s home has grown to house around 100 orphans and vulnerable children, which all receive 3 nutritious meals a day and attend the primary school for free.

Sponsor a Child

On top of the need for regular housing, many children lack the funds for even basic school supplies like backpacks, pencils, and notebooks. For just $42 a month you can provide a child in need with financial support for housing and education.

Growing Projects Create Demand

With growing school attendance and an increasing number of orphans and vulnerable children come growing financial demands.
In just six years the community has grown from 27 to around 100 orphans and vulnerable children and admitted 500 children into the private school. BUCC is currently seeking partners to invest in the long-term vision and help see these needy children to their day of success.
