About us

Who we are at Habitat For Lake Shore Communities!

We are a team of compassionate individuals committed to bringing transformation to the people of kalangala

Our focus on the health care stems from the challenges faced by the people of kalangala when they fall ill. Often they must endure days of waiting for medicine to be delivered, and even then, immediate attention is not guaranteed. This results in prolonged suffering for those in need of urgent medical care.

Additionally, we prioritize humanity.We believe that everyone deserves a decent place to call home, yet many in our community struggle to afford adequate housing. Recognizing the importance of safe and stable living environments for human well-being, we strive to improve the standards of living for all.

Our Story

In 2023, Uganda experienced torrential rainfall, wreaking havoc on communities residing around water bodies, particularly Lake Victoria, due to rising water levels. The aftermath left many individuals affected; expectant mothers struggled to access maternal healthcare, fishermen were unable to continue their livelihoods due to adverse weather conditions, learners faced obstacles in attending school due to fears of drowning, and homes were abandoned due to the threat of wild animals. Moreover, diseases like malaria and HIV surged due to insufficient medical supplies, limited medical knowledge, and poor transportation for doctors.

Kenneth, who grew up amidst these challenges, experienced firsthand the struggle and hardship. Despite his efforts, little has changed since then, prompting him to advocate for the voiceless. Together, we can extend a helping hand by uplifting fatherless children, enhancing health centers for expectant mothers, providing education for orphaned children, and securing the livelihoods of our community members. These individuals deserve a chance, and it's up to us to offer it to them.

Our Goal

Habitat for Lake Shore communities aims to enhance the economic, physical, social, and emotional well-being of individuals residing along the lake shores in Kalangala district.
