DonateAfrica
Children and youth living in poverty in Africa experience the harshest conditions of deprivation. We work in collaboration with four local organizations in Uganda and Ethiopia to offer children and youth a chance in life.
Despite tribal and political conflicts, natural disasters, health epidemics and the COVID-19 pandemic, our Partners offer children and youth the tools to achieve their full potential. From the crowded streets in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, to the small towns in the Central Region in Uganda, A Chance In Life provides local organizations with the financial resources to provide at-risk children and youth access to education and basic services.
