Education (Secondary & Vocational Training)
It has been proven through many studies that the most effective tool to lift people out of extreme poverty is to give them an education. CCM’s child sponsorship program will equips kids with all the equipment and clothing that they need to attend primary school. As our children learn and grow, our attention we hope will turned to their future needs in terms of secondary education or vocational training. This level of education is currently out of reach for many children as their parents simply cannot afford to pay the costs associated with this level of education. Without secondary education, children would be forced to go back to a life of subsistence farming and thus trapped in the cycle of extreme poverty. It is our hope and prayer that we can support each of our sponsor children through all of their schooling/education
Spiritual Teaching & Learning
Spiritual Teaching & Learning- CCM places a high importance on teaching the children about the love and grace of God and the hope and salvation that comes through knowing and walking with Him. It is our prayer that each child will develop their own personal relationship with our Lord and Savior. Spiritual teaching and prayer is an integral part of CCM.
Child Protection and Survival Program
Although Uganda has made promising socio-economic strides since emerging from decades of conflict, many children still face myriad challenges there. Despite a growing economy, a large percentage of the population of 30-million+ people still live in poverty, stretching families’ capacities to provide a protective environment for their children to develop. Moreover, Uganda is one of the countries most affected by HIV and AIDS in the world, a situation that has orphaned over at least 1.2 million Ugandan children and severely tested extended kinship networks’ capacity to care for children.
The Child Protection and Survival Program is designed to ensure the safety of children from physical, psychological and emotional harm within their communities. The program is geared at reducing risks to children’s holistic well-being,
