KIBAALE COMMUNITY CENTRE
Since 1993, the Kibaale Community Centre has been transforming lives in the Rakai District of Uganda by providing healthcare, development resources and a quality Christian education to vulnerable members of our community. Each of the 1500 nursery, primary, secondary and vocational students are chosen from the most disadvantaged homes in a region that has been devastated by AIDS and extreme poverty. The care each of these children receives from our dedicated staff allows them the opportunity to overcome their challenging circumstances and improve both their lives and the lives of their families.
Another way this project cares for children is through the Student Sponsorship Program, where individuals and families provide monthly support to a student at the school. These sponsorships allow each student to receive a uniform, a daily meal, medical care and a quality education. While meeting these physical needs is important, our sponsorship program goes even further. The education our students receive at the Kibaale Community Centre not only equips them for academic success, it also introduces them to the love of God. When students feel loved by both God and their sponsors they have a unique hope for the future. We have seen first hand how this hope leads to the transformation of both individuals and their communities.
Kuwasha has chosen to partner with the Kibaale Community Centre because of the evident love for vulnerable communities, families and individuals. We are proud to support the life-changing work of this amazing project and welcome you to join us on this journey.
“Children are a gift from the LORD; they are a reward from Him.” Psalm 127:3
What
The Kibaale Community Centre, is a non-profit organization based in southern Uganda. At our community centre we operate 5 schools with over 1500 of the most vulnerable students in our community, a community health facility caring for over 17,000 patients annually, a 50 acre farm, and clean water projects for the community of Kibaale.
Where
The Kibaale Community Centre is located in the remote village of Kibaale (Chee-Ball-EE), in the Rakai District of southern Uganda. Our close proximity to the border of Tanzania put us right in the middle of the conflict between Tanzania and Uganda in the late 70’s. The Rakai district is also widely regarded as the birth place of the HIV epidemic that has ripped through Uganda.
Vision
We believe that through quality Christian education the cycle of poverty in Kibaale can be broken. Our desire is to see the students that pass through our schools today become the strong, ethical leaders of Uganda tomorrow.
Mission
Kibaale Community Centre exists to impact the nation of Uganda through evangelism and discipleship, education, health-care and community development focused on service, leadership and excellence, to the Glory of God
Our Approach
Our goal is to provide an education to children who would not otherwise get one. Our commitment to children when they are accepted to our school is to provide them with the best education and care possible, giving them the opportunity to change theirs and their families lives in the future. Many of our students carry on and complete University level programs.
