Child Sponsorship

Keep a Child in School

At Yamba Hearts for Uganda, we believe that every child regardless of gender deserves the opportunity to learn, grow, and build a better future. Our Child Sponsorship Program exists to support children in both primary and secondary school, helping them overcome financial barriers that would otherwise keep them out of the classroom.Education is a right, not a privilege. Yet for many families in Mpigi and surrounding areas, school fees, uniforms, and basic supplies are simply unaffordable. This often leads to children dropping out, missing vital years of education, and falling into cycles of poverty.Through this program, we provide the support children need to stay in school, thrive academically, and pursue their dreams no matter their background or gender.

Your donation today helps us:

  • Provide school supplies, meals, and accommodation for children

  • Support teachers to deliver quality learning

  • Offer scholarships for Primary, secondary, and vocational training.

  • Deliver mentorship, computer skills, and psychosocial support to learners

You can be the reason a child stays in school. Every donation helps break the cycle of poverty and empowers children and families to build a brighter future.

How Child Sponsorship Works

Your monthly contribution directly supports a child’s education, meals, school supplies such as notebooks, pens, and pencils, and basic personal care items including soap, toothpaste, and toothbrushes.

It also covers basic medical needs and helps provide nursing and caregiving support for the children. Beyond essentials, your support contributes to mentoring programs, character-building activities, and faith-based guidance through weekly Bible studies. Our staff ensure children receive care, counseling, and encouragement to navigate challenges in their lives.

Importantly, your sponsorship extends beyond your assigned child. A portion of your support helps the most vulnerable students in our programs who do not have any assistance from guardians or sponsors.

By sponsoring a child, you are creating a ripple effect of hope and empowerment, blessing not only the child you support but also the wider community of children in need across Uganda.

Who This Program Supports:

  • Children from low-income or vulnerable households

  • Orphans and children in single-parent families

  • Boys and girls equally, ensuring inclusive access to education for all

The Impact

When you sponsor a child, you're investing in more than just education. You’re supporting dignity, security, and opportunity. Every child we keep in school is another step toward breaking the cycle of poverty and building stronger, more resilient communities.
