Hunger cannot wait

Thanks to support from Avanade and Aspire Foundation we were able to start a huge project food garden project in two of the poorest slum areas of Kampala Uganda.

With their support we have been able to ensure hundreds of children in the Bwaise and Kikoni slums have a sustainable source of nutritious food.

In Bwaise the children have learnt to run the gardens as their own enterprise.

As Tony, Hameria and friends explain, the project is overseen by their ‘Children’s committee’ and they started their own saving circles from the profit they make selling the excess vegetable.
