CHILD SPONSORSHIP
We work directly with orphans and vulnerable children enable them access to education but also work with them to achieve their educational goals, foster civic engagement and support their home life and mental wellbeing. Through art-based programs, sports, income generation and leadership opportunities, Ainembabazi youth give back as well as achieve their educational goals. EDUCAT
IONAL QUALITY
Providing accessibility to school is only one part of the puzzle. Ainembabazi works in rural communities where the quality of education, resources and teachers are in need. Ainembabazi works with partners schools to build an environment where all children can learn. Whether building libraries, latrines, classrooms or teacher's quarters, these projects contribute to morale and effectiveness of the environment. ADDRESSING HIV AND AIDS
Since 2005, the challenges of HIV have been a significant priority for community members. Ainembabazi is currently undertaking counselling and testing in partnership with TASO as well as has been delivering ongoing educational and community dialogue programs on sexual health, HIV and AIDS. By training facilitators and educators in the community, the knowledge is retained and continues to have an impact.
IMPROVING HEALTH
Improving the health of families and children have remained a pillar of our work. A child can not achieve in school if they are malnourished nor a family achieve their goals if struggling with malaria. Through an educational focus and improving access to clean water, Ainembabazi works to promote hygiene, sanitation and an understanding of healthy living. We have provided nutritional programs and aim to build a healthy community. We also provide emergency support. MICRO-LENDING
Supporting local entrepreneurship through both lending and business education, we have been able to see little ideas grow into meaningful opportunities. Our aim is to provide lending opportunities to the most marginalized to ensure they do not get left behind and ensure we work with them through business planning and providing the skills to run their business and ensure a profit. COOPERATIVE PROJECTS
Ainembabazi focuses on income generation through a collaborative and cooperative lens. We have supported the communities we work in to undertake cooperative tailoring, crafts, livestock and gardens that has brought the community together as well as supported their family needs of generating income. One of our communities on their own initiative has also started up a savings and lending cooperative.
