Family Development Ministries Uganda
Family Development Ministries is a non profit making Organization focusing on the holistic family development. We started as small project in 2005 in the district of Kayunga with focus on empowering and enabling the living and learning process of the needy school children and February 2009 incorporated as a company to carry out charity business. Through all our work, we seek to create permanent solutions to rural family problems by working towards a systemic change in the educational, economic, social, spiritual and cultural dynamics. We therefore work towards ensuring a just, equitable, sustainable society by putting our efforts on programs and projects that ensure the physical and emotional health of the rural families and hence improving the quality of human life. since we started through our Early Childhood Education enhancement project, we have been in position to support children and families with basic learning requirements where items such as exercise book, pens, pencils, mathematical sets, personal effects, and medical care have been given to the lees privileged several home visits to children as a follow up to evaluate their performance and wellbeing. Over the years Home and school visits have been the most rewarding time to our work and at the same time so devastating seeing and hearing from kids how life is treating them.
