We're Back AND Kicking It With Natalie D. Tribal Council of Lend A Hand Uganda

LAHU - USA is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, based in New York City. WE BELIEVE THAT EVERY CHILD HAS THE RIGHT TO SURVIVAL.

There is an urgent need to assure that the 3 million orphaned and vulnerable children in Uganda have access to a safe home, nutritious meals, schooling, and stable communities.  Study after study demonstrates that these factors are crucial to a child's ability to thrive, and we know that helping a child flourish doesn't end with a successful guardian placement, but also depends on the stability of the community at large.

LAHU-USA is committed to facilitating empowering, sustainable change in both urban and rural Uganda. We strive to give community members the tools, training, and support to maintain and grow each project, and believe that this holistic approach fosters permanent change that will improve lives.  This is why LAHU sponsors animal husbandry, mushroom, bricklaying and horticultural projects, as well as guardian, education, and health and nutrition programs.   With your help we can improve the lives of millions of Ugandan children and their communities!
