At URICT, being situated in a rural area, transport has become a serious problem as we implement our activities, so it’s really our prayer to have a van or truck or a double cabin.
URICT Uganda in partnership with WorldGranny have started helping Grandmothers and their orphaned. We give them free Goats , Pigs, vegetable and fruit tree Seeds, Birds, Garden tools and equipment for income generating and nutrition.
