Three programmes.
One purpose.

Every programme we run exists because a family in Eastern Uganda needed it first. Here is exactly what your support funds, and the lives it changes.

Our Core Programmes

The three pillars of everything we do.

Every initiative we run falls under one of these three programmes. Together, they cover a child's upbringing, a mother's independence, and a community's basic needs.

Children supported through Musana's orphan care and education programme01

Orphan Care & Education

  • Residential and day care
  • Daily Qur'an and Islamic studies
  • Primary & secondary sponsorship

More Ways We Show Up

Our Initiatives

Alongside our three core programmes, these are the smaller, steady projects that fill in the gaps our communities tell us matter most.

A family receiving a Musana emergency food pack

Food Pack Distribution

A food pack gets a family through the weeks between one harvest and the next, so no one goes hungry while they wait.

A newly drilled Musana borehole serving a village

Borehole Drilling

Every borehole we sink turns a multi-kilometre walk into a short one, and turns sickness into clean water for a whole village.

Children sharing a hot meal at a Musana community feeding event

Hot Meal Programme

A hot, shared meal on a hard day tells a child they are seen, not just fed.

A masjid supported by Musana in Eastern Uganda

Masjid Support

We help build and maintain masjids that anchor prayer, learning and community life in the villages we serve.

Cataract Surgery

A short cataract procedure can restore an elder's sight, and their independence along with it.

Community members planting trees with Musana

Tree Planting

We plant trees for shade, soil and a small climate legacy in the communities we serve, one seedling at a time.
