Rescue Transform Empower
Operation Uganda is an Australian faith based registered charitable organisation, and with your help we rescue and care for orphaned and vulnerable children and create sustainable community development projects in Uganda, one of the poorest countries in the world.
Operation Uganda focuses primarily on the most vulnerable and destitute. All the children in our scholarship program must meet a strict criteria of being either orphaned or vulnerable. The women in our empowerment projects are either widowed or solo mothers in destitute situations. Your support makes a real difference to the world’s most needy.
Our story
Our Mission in Uganda is to keep vulnerable children in families & school, and strengthen and develop communities.
