Our Impact

We aren’t just solving today's crisis; we are building a foundation for lasting change. Our goal is to ensure that families in Mityana are strengthened, protected, and kept together.

Our 2020-2025 Impact

We have trained a dedicated frontline of volunteers equipped to respond to families in crisis. These are the eyes and ears of our communities, ensuring that the first response to a family in trouble is support, not separation.

Raising a child with disabilities requires extraordinary strength. We have trained 6 Famiies on child rights, protection, and inclusive parenting, providing them with the skills to ensure their children thrive at home.

We are also proud that 23 children are currently in school, building a brighter future. We would like to start an initiative where young leaders serve as “Wellbeing Champions,” offering peer support to help others heal and navigate life after institutional care.

Healing is a journey best walked with those who understand. We’ve trained 10 young leaders to serve as "Wellbeing Champions," providing peer-to-peer mental health support and guidance to youth navigating the challenges of life after institutional care.

Our Latest Impact

We’re helping to reimagine the whole child protection and care system, repurpose orphanages and rebuild services at the heart of communities that are designed to strengthen and support birth, foster and adoptive families.
