Oli otya! That’s how we say hello in Luganda. Mulembe! That’s how we say hello in Lugisu/Lumasaba one of the widely spoken languages in Uganda. Welcome to Uganda, the Pearl of Africa, a land of breathtaking landscapes, rich culture, and resilient communities. Child’s Life Foundation Uganda was founded by Webisa Emma Dan, also known as Emmavile Danz, out of a deep passion to uplift and transform the lives of disadvantaged children. His commitment, vision, and love for community continue to drive the foundation’s mission every day creating hope, nurturing potential, and building a brighter future for every child we serve. Our current projects focus on creating safe spaces where orphans and abandoned children can find refuge. We are actively raising funds to build a dedicated home for these children and to supply clean, safe drinking water elements vital for their health and well-being. The inspiration behind our work is born from the stories of children who have faced unimaginable hardships. Many wake up each day with empty stomachs, unable to afford school fees, or are forced to live on the streets because they have nowhere else to turn. These are children who deserve a chance at life, a chance to dream and grow without fear. Our story begins with one woman’s unwavering compassion and resilience Madam Nafuna Mary. In the early 1990s, Nafuna faced profound hardships. She lost her husband and endured the pain of being mistreated by her community simply because she couldn’t have children. Despite her struggles, she held onto hope and returned to her hometown of Mbale City, seeking peace and a new purpose. Her life took a transformative turn on December 5, 1992. While walking the streets, she encountered two critically malnourished children a young girl carrying a baby on her back. Moved by their suffering, Nafuna took them into her home. She fed them, comforted them, and in that moment, her life changed forever. The girl disappeared without a trace, but the baby stayed. Nafuna named him "Webisa Emma Dan" and raised him as her own, offering him the love and security he had been denied.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing
In Uganda, 50,000 children are growing up in orphanages. Nearly all have family. Orphanages make orphans out of children. We help set up community hub centers that provide services that PREVENT family separation in the first place. Every day, families in crisis or poverty are forced to give up their children in the hope of a better life. Decades of research prove what we know in our hearts: a family is the best place for a child to grow up. The Foundation helps reunite children with their own families where possible and finds loving, Ugandan adoptive or foster families where the child’s own family cannot be found or is unsafe. We help set up community hub centers that provide services that prevent family separation in the first place. We also got some kids we care for and as for that reason we encourage volunteers to come through and give a hand to help a child's Life. Any support is highly appreciated, for example, Teaching, Gardening, and many others that can encourage these kids to have a better future. On top of that we fight hard to manage the illiterate adults, both mothers, fathers and grands. However feels this at heart, your a warmly invited to experience a life with us in return for accommodation, touring, learning different traditions, language and many others. The purpose of the Foundation is to reduce the suffering of the vulnerable children, build their capacity through giving them skills empowerment, love, care, education and simple activities to do so that they become productive in the society in the near future.
