At Maisha Children's Ministry we believe that each child deserves a chance for a better future. We are committed to helping poor and needy children of Uganda, by giving food, clothing and an opportunity to learn. We try to do whatever it takes for the children~everyday, and in times of crisis, giving hope to the hopeless, transforming their lives...and the future we share. We are currently fundraising to build a home for orphans and abandoned children and to provide clean, drinking water.

Mission Statement

At Maisha Children's Ministry, volunteering is more than just giving back--it’s a life-changing experience. As a volunteer, you’ll play a vital role in empowering underprivileged children through education, mentorship, and support while immersing yourself in the warmth and culture of the local community. You’ll work closely with families, schools, and community leaders, gaining hands-on experience in teaching, organizing events, and mentoring young minds. Beyond making a meaningful impact, you’ll build lasting friendships, develop valuable skills, and experience the rich traditions and daily life of the people you serve. Whether you’re assisting with school programs, supporting community projects, or simply spreading kindness, your efforts will create a ripple effect of positive change. Join us today and be part of something truly transformative!

Description

At Maisha Children's Ministry, we ensure that our volunteers have a safe, comfortable, and welcoming place to stay during their time with us. Accommodation is provided within a family-friendly compound, located at the same site as the organization, allowing volunteers to fully immerse themselves in the daily activities of the ministry.

Volunteers will stay in self-contained rooms, offering privacy and essential amenities. The compound is secure, with a peaceful environment that ensures a safe and relaxing stay. Clean water is readily available for drinking and daily use, ensuring good hygiene and health.

Meals are prepared in-house, giving volunteers the chance to enjoy delicious, home-cooked local dishes. A small contribution from each volunteer helps cover meal expenses, making it a shared and community-driven experience.

Staying within the organization’s premises allows volunteers to engage closely with the children, staff, and local community while experiencing the warmth and hospitality of Ugandan culture. Come feel at home while making a difference!
