Our mission is to alleviate extreme poverty and facilitate lasting change in the lives of the most vulnerable children and families living in urban slums in Uganda.
To provide and facilitate affordable, suitable and accessible palliative care in Uganda and other African Countries
To advocate for social and economic inclusion and support of the child in skills, business and education.
To help individuals and communities acquire necessary knowledge, skills and develop an empowered mindset to help them use effectively the opportunities and resources they can access through an integral transformation approach.
The mission of the Foundation is guided by the aspirations of local communities; JLOF takes a holistic and problem-oriented approach and work in partnership with the local community, government, business sector, academia and other organisations or individuals that share common interest in finding and delivering result-oriented and lasting solutions to problems facing the community. The vision of the Foundation is to be a force and a partner of choice, dedicated to facilitating the creation of sustainably developed, resilient and socio-economically empowered communities which optimize their potentials and people live in dignity, security and harmony across boundaries of ethnicity, social stratification and generations.
Using education, entrepreneurship and local leadership to empower families in Uganda
Worldwide, around 60 million children have no access to primary education and roughly 387 million children are unable to acquire basic skills, despite attending school (Global Education Monitoring Report, UNESCO, 2017). It is our vision to create a world in which every child can read and write. Since 2006, Visions for Children e.V. has been committed to ensuring that every child is given the opportunity to obtain a basic education with which they can acquire basic skills. We particularly build on and contribute to the fourth sustainability goal of the United Nations' Agenda 2030 - namely to ensure an equitable and high-quality education. We believe schools to be anchor points that give children the chance of a self-determined future by means of capacity building within the entire region.
Animal-Kind International raises funds and provides grants and capacity-building support to community-based animal welfare organizations in resource-limited countries (primarily in Africa, with programs in parts of Latin America and the Caribbean). It aims to strengthen local partners so they can rescue, care for, and reduce suffering of dogs, cats, donkeys, horses, and other animals through funding, technical assistance, and targeted grant programs.
To promote and bring about amicable change, emphasise togetherness and co operation amongst individuals in order to bring about a positive transformation of the community and as a result reducing ignorance, poverty levels, conflicts and corruption within the society, as well as introducing a healthy and manageable society within the state, and ensuring sustainable environmental management.
"To enable all children to reach their optimum potential so that maximal function is achieved, deformity prevented or reduced and the effect of disability minimised so that they may overcome many of the barriers that they and their families face."
With joint efforts we support communities in the poor and risky areas in Uganda, through building specific projects for education, sustainable development and stable change.
