Why your donation matters

In Uganda poverty, disease and violence are rife – which leads to hundreds of children being abandoned every year. Child’s i Foundation is helping solve this endemic problem.

Our transitional home and family support centre provide quality short-term care for babies; whilst our social work department ensures every child in our care grows up in a loving family in Uganda.

Case study: donations in action

Joey was abandoned in a public taxi park when he was just 4 weeks old. Before we set up our Baby Abandonment Project, Joey would doubtless have spent his life in an institution. Instead, after just 6 weeks with us in Malaika, a wonderful Ugandan couple, adopted him. He was finally cherished by a loving family and had a wonderful future ahead of him.

Then disaster struck. One Monday night, we found out that Joey was suffering from critical stenosis of his pulmonary artery – it was only a matter of time before he would suffer cardiac failure. Joey’s heart has been relying solely on the temporary structures that are necessary for babies in the womb. These should have closed up within days of his birth, but they have somehow remained open and kept him alive.

We launched an appeal on JustGiving, hoping we could go some way to raising the £10,000 we needed to send Joey for life-saving care. Then another miracle happened – you raised the entire amount in 38 hours.
