How you can help

Three ways to change a child’s tomorrow

Donate

Give once or monthly by MTN MoMo, Airtel Money, card or bank transfer. Every shilling goes to children’s meals, fees, care and shelter.

Sponsor a Child

From UGX 150,000 a month you keep one child in school with meals, uniform and books, and receive updates on their progress.

Volunteer or partner

Teach, mentor, bring a church or company on board, or give in kind. There is a place for your skills and your community.

A new life

From the streets of Mbarara to a sewing machine and a plan.

At Amagara Masya, boys who once slept in bus parks learn to read, heal and train for a trade. Most are resettled with family within a year, with RODA walking alongside them.

Even the smallest changes, when made with care and intention, create a powerful and lasting impact on a child’s life.

Be the reason a child’s life changes for the better.

A monthly gift keeps a child in school, fed and safe. A one-off gift meets an urgent need today. Both change a life.
