Umoya Ministries is on a mission to rescue children from the streets of Uganda.

We rescue, rehabilitate and reconcile street-connected children with their families.

OUR MISSION

Uganda has one of the largest populations of young people in the world, with over 56% of its population under the age of 18. There are approximately 15,000 children living and working on the streets in Kampala, Uganda.

WHAT WE DO

RESCUE, REHABILITATION & REINTEGRATION

We run regular outreaches on the streets to provide the children with access to food, water and soccer.
