2. Sponsor a child

When you sponsor a child you are changing the course of their life.  You are providing them with access to education through which they can break the cycle of poverty.  You are giving them hope for a brighter future. 

​

For girls in particular, keeping them in school helps protect them from childhood marriage and early pregnancy. 

​

Two of our boys had already taken to the streets to look for scrap metal and plastic bottles that they could sell for scrap to make a little money to buy food. Now they have 3 meals a day, a safe place to sleep, a good education and hope!

 

Some of the children in Kabale are still waiting for sponsors  (please see below).  Please read through their profiles and if you would like to sponsor one of the children please let us know by using the chat facility, contact form or by emailing us at buildinglivesuk23@gmail.com

5. Host 

I am very happy to come to visit groups to talk about the work of Building Lives International UK.  So if your church, school, youth group, friends or colleagues would like to know more please get in touch and we can discuss what a visit might include.  

​

It would be great to build links between the children and communities we serve and similar groups in the UK.
