INITIATIVES
FOOD
Our goal is to build better communities as we meet the practical needs of our neighbours. Food is a basic human need, yet many people go without. Covid-19, and the following economic crisis, have only multiplied this problem.
Food, and everyday necessities, provide support and connection to those in need. The team at Raphael House recognize this and work tirelessly to support those experiencing hardship. Raphael House supports families by providing them with groceries, life skills, and resources in community.
The need is great and the demand for assistance continues to grow at a rapid rate. Raphael House works year-round to ensure that students, and their families, within the local school districts are provided with nourishing food throughout the year.
Food programs are the conduit to building safe relationships with families in need. From there, Raphael House offers a wide range of community-based programs to create community, provide education and support the mental, emotional and physical health of the families they serve. ​
EDUCATION
​
Igniting change through education for students and caregivers is essential in community development, both locally and internationally.
Our charity partners are proactively creating education programs for the regions they serve. The team at Kuwasha serves almost 2,000 students spread out across 5 schools. They believe that by educating children that otherwise would not have access to education, the cycle of poverty that many of these families find themselves in can be broken.
Kuwasha is dedicated to supporting the Kibaale Community Centre in Southern Uganda through quality Christian education and essential services such as healthcare, vocational training, clean water initiatives, and agricultural programs. These proven initiatives empower community members and enhance the lives of vulnerable individuals in the region.
