Helping Hands Uganda is a Toronto-based charity that empowers and improves the welfare of children living in dire poverty in Eastern Uganda.
Helping Hands Uganda provides sponsorships that pay for school expenses (fees, books, uniform and shoes), medical expenses and food for children, plus an income-generating project for the child’s family.
The Canadian operations of this charity are staffed entirely by volunteers, to ensure that at least 90% of funds received go directly towards sponsorship.
This Summer, give a gift and get a smile!
Donations to our holiday fundraising drive will be used to purchase goats, clothing and lanterns for sponsored children.
