Started Economic empowerment through provision of agriculture incentives to grandmothers in rural/village areas of Uganda.
Grand mothers can be empowered to become active members within their households and communities so that their can provide basic needs to their orphaned.
Basing on our findings from Kamuli District it was discovered that in Uganda grandmothers have traditional skills and knowledge, which they can use to contribute to initiatives in their households and communities. Sometimes grandmothers, manage to produce a substantial harvest, which can be enough for home and commercial consumption. But such mothers always have low access to available markets and lack agriculture incentives to boost their produce.
In the photos grandmothers receiving agriculture equipment like hoes, pangs and help them access markets for their produce.
We gave out to many grandmothers and their orphaned free small lamp Solar lights even though many grandmothers don’t have houses to sleep in with their grand orphaned children.
