In 2022, we observed that a reasonable number of the women we were empowering were widows. We held our first meeting with the widows to listen to them and provide a space to process their grief.

Its economy, institutions, values, and leadership are actively taking shape. The children we educate today will determine the kind of country Uganda becomes tomorrow. This is where education moves beyond classrooms and into nation-building. At Shalom Care School , we understand ourselves as participants in Uganda’s development, not observers of it. Investing in children is not charity; it is an economic and social strategy. A well-formed child becomes a productive adult—one who contributes to innovation, employment, civic responsibility, and community stability. Conversely, neglecting education in a young population places enormous strain on future economies through unemployment, dependency, a...
