Childs i - Volunteering · 2 October 2017

We believe in families, not orphanages. We’re helping Uganda reimagine care so that no child anywhere need ever experience an orphanage again. We help repurpose orphanages into services that people really need, keeping families together, reuniting families or finding new ‘forever families’.

Story

Our Employer Blue Sky Fostering have been working with Childs I Foundation for some time now and we are lucky enough to be travelling to Uganda to assist Childs I wth their work - here is some background  on the work that we will be assisting with while we are there

Every day in Uganda, children are abandoned in hospitals, police posts or even left for dead and traditionally orphanges are seen as the only answer.

Sadly over 50,000 children in Uganda are growing up in Orphanges. Those that escape the child traffickers,  neglect and abuse, live with the consequences of a different kind of violence,

Tragically as many as 80% of children have familiy. Poverty, hunger and despair lead the parents to give up their children to Orphanges.

When they are no social or economic safety nets a crisis can push parents to believe that their children would be better off in an orphange

Childs I are building services to help keep families together and help children transition from damaging orhphanges into families

Childs I  have already helped place 1500 children into loving Ugandian families

The work is ongoing and the need for Volunteers continues to ensure a safe outcome for these children

Please help me raise some funds to support this valuable cause and your support would mean so much to me

All donations welcome but this is what a donation can do

£ 5 - Can provide a night in emergency Foster Care for an abandoned child

£ 50 - Can help trace an abandoned child's family

£ 100 - Can support a Foster Carer in caring for 2 children for one month
