Jajja’s Kids creates possibilities for former street children in Uganda. We provide a safe and loving home for 18 children along with adequate food, shelter, education, and medical care. The goal is to help the children elevate themselves, their families, and the society in which they live by providing access to strong educational and leadership opportunities. We strive to educate these children to the extent of their interests and abilities.
