Providing for the Very Neediest

The Peace Centre provides for orphaned children, situated in Bukinda, south west Uganda. We only support children who are genuinely needy, and go through a rigorous background checking process to ensure this. The vast majority of our children are double orphans who have no immediate family. Typically their parents have died of AIDS, and most of our children are two or more years behind in school because they have not been able to afford the fees.

Our Goal

Our goal is simple: to ensure love, care and a home for each of our children, so that they are educated, healthy young people who can be successful in life. 

Our Programmes

The needs of different children vary, and we run two programmes, one focused specifically on the provision of education, and the other, for those who have nowhere left to turn, is a residential programme with children living full-time at The Peace Centre.

The PEACE Programme

Providing Education and Community Empowerment
  • ​For children who have relatives they may be able to live with, but who cannot provide for schooling and therefore end up dropping out, with little in the way of future prospects
  • We provide school fees and caregivers commit to provision of meals, school uniform and basic health and sanitary care

1-to-1 Peace Centre Sponsorship

Providing full care for extreme cases where children are abandoned, with no caregivers to look after them
  • For children who are extremely vulnerable and need full-time care as they have no support left
  • We provide housing, schooling, three meals a day, school uniform as well as basic health and sanitary care

Our Impact 

Education for All

Each of our children attends primary and secondary school, as well as receiving vocational training in practical life skills

Healthy Living 

Our children receive filling and healthy meals each day, with great emphasis placed on their physical and mental wellbeing

A Caring Community

Our children develop a genuine sense of belonging as part of a community that looks out for and supports one another
