Grandparents are our links to the past and guides to the future. Stepping into the role of primary caregiver for a second time to orphaned and vulnerable children means that these children have an opportunity to grow and thrive in a family based setting.
Nyaka Canada is proud to be partnering with the Nyaka AIDS Orphans Project (NAOP) in southwest Uganda who remain committed to ensuring that orphaned and vulnerable children are settled within families and works to support grandmothers to provide for these dependent grandchildren.
Utilizing community decision-making processes, Grandmother group leaders work with their members to identify vulnerable Grandmother caregivers in need of new homes thereby ensuring Grandmother caregivers and their grandchildren have structurally sound shelter.
YOU can be a part of the movement to provide adequate shelter today by joining hands with Nyaka Canada and help us reach our goal of raising funds to provide sponsorship for 13 grandmother home projects in Kanungu and Rukungiri districts with a one-time donation or make a smaller custom amount towards this effort. Every contribution helps!
