The Beersheba Project exists to empower the community of Musoto, Mbale to transform their lives through Health, Education and Livelihoods.

Through health promoters, teacher training and self-help groups we aim to increase the capacity of community members so that they can be the answer to their own issues. As well as these community wide activities we aim to encourage individuals to live well through educating children at risk of dropping out of school, youth and children's work and sexual health training. All of these activities take part in partnership with the local church.

You can view a short video of this project.

This is a vocational training and design project in a slum area of Kampala equipping and running a youth tailoring class. This is an area where HIV/AIDS is widespread and many of the young people are either HIV/AIDS sufferers or have been left orphans or in care of grandparents after the loss of their parents. As a direct result, schooling has been restricted and the families have no incomes. This course is intended to provide skills and a source of income.
