Ssamba Foundation

Ssamba Foundation addresses some of the most pervasive problems in rural Uganda, including poor healthcare systems, hunger, poor education system, access to clean drinking water, environment degradation and extreme poverty. In addition, the foundation focuses on empowering the youth of Uganda through leadership and skills training. The organization is founded on the principles that our common humanity is more important than our individual differences. We therefore operate on a non-political, non-denominational, and non-sectarian basis, welcoming each and every Ugandan in need. The focus of our programs is on providing resources for quality social services delivery in under-resourced communities of Uganda. In order to uplift the youngest of our society however, it is often necessary to first assist adults and the communities in which they live. The main focus of the Ssamba Foundation is to provide opportunities for our local communities. All year round we organize activities, workshops, training programs and skill training for and by our community. We do want to offer the opportunity to international volunteers to experience these activities firsthand and to volunteer at our projects in Uganda. As a volunteer in Uganda you will be on the front row and you will be able to experience true Ugandan life.
