Child and Family Development

Child Development

MIFA’s core program is Child and Family Development that focuses on the educational development of the vulnerable child and support to the family. By donating Euros 50 per month to our Child and Family Development Program you are helping to solve the education crisis in Uganda and to give young people the tools which will help them succeed. The child you sponsor will be able to afford Tuition, school uniforms, text books and the other school materials which are required for all individuals to attend school.

On average MIFA Child and Family Development Program helps 540 needy orphans per year to gain access to quality education by linking them to willing sponsors in and outside Uganda.  The students access quality education at primary, secondary and tertiary institutions including universities. The children get other benefits like medical treatment, counseling and spiritual nurturing. MIFA endeavors to keep track of children who have successfully gone through the program through the Alumni Association.  A number of Alumni are supporting MIFA programs as volunteers and some have shown interest in sponsoring needy children.

Family Development

Most of the children’s guardians live below the poverty line, i.e. their income is below Euro 1.00 a day rendering them unable to meet their basic social needs. They need to be supported economically so as to live meaningful and sustainable lives. By donating Euros 100 you can help a family start an income generating project that will enable them to cater for the family needs and the children’s school requirements.
