Orphanage and respite care
£0 of £10.000 raised
Currently , the Bwindi Foundation helps support 21 orphans in the community , their parents often falling victim to HIV or another disease they are too poor to seek out medication or in accidents at work .
An orphanage is currently being built to house any children who are without family or who need to escape violence .
3 out of every 5 women in Uganda deal with domestic violence at some point in their lives. The children are also victims or witness the violence which in turn can lead them to reenact this behaviour in later life with their own family’s .
Bwindi Foundation hopes to be able to offer a warm bed , a hot meal and nurturing to children and hopefully the women who need our support in the future .
