In Uganda, War and disease has impacted the Northern part of Uganda greatly, creating a generation of orphans and vulnerable children.

ELVIS is a 10 year old boy living in Uganda. He is a total orphan meaning that both his mother and father have died; He witnessed his parents’ death at the hands of child soldiers as young as himself. He just joined the orphanage and lives with 178 other orphaned/abandoned children. He doesn't have a bed yet and shares a mattress with two other little boys. Your Sponsorship of ELVIS will provide him with school fees to get the education needed to have a fulfilling life. It will also provide him with a much needed meal, mattress of his own, counseling  and shelter .

Would you consider sponsoring ELVIS and helping him reach his goal of becoming a Doctor one day?

Your sponsorship amount of $35 per month ensures that ELVIS receive an education, a school uniform, shoes and 2 hot meals a day.  You will be able to write ELVIS, and he will enjoy writing back to you.  Thank you for your willingness to contribute to the life of a child who has so little.

AWF provides a quality education and home to disadvantaged children who are at risk of becoming street children. The reason children come into our care are numerous, but whether they are orphaned, abandoned or from unstable home or from severe poverty, they desperately deserve our assistance.

By sponsoring an AWF child, you will be giving them an entire life and future that, without the support of AWF, would be unimaginable. Your sponsor-a-child donations will cover the entire living expenses of one child, including food, clothes, and school. Unlike other charities, AWF will not spend your money on community projects or spend large percentages on administration costs, but we can ensure that all your money is going towards the care and education of your sponsored child.

Government primary schools are technically free in Uganda, however, schools charge their own fees each term, we must buy uniform, stationery and so on. For our children, who have no one to care for them, or guardians who struggle to even find money for food, it is just not feasible for them to go to school.

This child desperately needs your help now. Please help balance the injustice in this world by sponsoring a child today. Click here for a Sponsor-a-Child Program FORM for Elvis
