Through our sponsorship program, we extend vital support to children hailing from impoverished and vulnerable backgrounds, facilitating their enrollment, retention, and successful completion of their education.
We alleviate the financial burden by covering school fees and providing essential educational materials. Moreover, we empower both children and their families with the necessary resources and skills to achieve economic self-sufficiency.
At Pearl Action Aid (PAAF), our dedication spans across all educational levels, from pre-school to higher institutions, affording children an enduring opportunity to not only uplift themselves but also contribute positively to their families and communities. However, this mission can only thrive with the generous support of individuals like you, who commit to making monthly, termly, or yearly contributions, ensuring that every child receives the education they deserve.
How do we manage our Sponsor a Child in East Africa program?
Our community-based social workers stationed in three field offices located in Lira City (Northern Uganda), Fort Portal City (Western Uganda), and Kampala City (Central Uganda), collaborate with local leaders and educators to conduct thorough vulnerability assessments for children in dire need of assistance. Once identified, eligible children have their background information meticulously documented and securely stored for future reference upon sponsorship.
