Our mission is to empower and support young mothers and women in Uganda who are facing challenges such as poverty, domestic violence, and lack of education and resources. Our goal is to provide them with a safe and nurturing environment, as well as the education and resources necessary to become self-sufficient. We aim to break the cycle of poverty and inequality. Your support will help us provide housing, food, healthcare, education, and life skills training to these young mothers and women, giving them the tools they need to build a better future filled with JOY for themselves and their children.
Re-Joyce's Empowerment Project aims to uplift women and their families by providing comprehensive support and opportunities for growth. By alleviating rent burdens, the project ensures stable housing for women, allowing them to focus on personal and professional development. Education for children is prioritized, ensuring the next generation has the knowledge and skills to succeed. Technical training is offered to women, equipping them with valuable skills for better employment opportunities. Additional support services, including healthcare and counseling, further empower women to lead independent and fulfilling lives, fostering a cycle of growth and prosperity within their communities.
Re-Joyce's Shelter Project is dedicated to providing secure and supportive housing for women in Uganda facing unsafe living conditions, including those affected by domestic violence or homelessness. By alleviating rent burdens, the project ensures that young women and mothers have access to stable and safe shelter, freeing them from the stress of financial insecurity. This initiative creates a nurturing environment where women can rebuild their lives, access necessary resources, and ultimately regain their independence and dignity. Through comprehensive support services, the Shelter Project aims to foster resilience for women in vulnerable situations.
Our Core Values
Community- The main goal of Re-Joyce is to build relationships amongst people. Spreading smiles and joy with all those we encounter- from those serving on the board of directors, volunteers, and the young women we reach through this ministry.
Opportunity- Many of the people in Uganda struggle due to a lack of education and resources. Our goal is to provide them with the tools to change their circumstances and open opportunities that would otherwise not be available to them. Technical training and educational opportunities are the main ways we can provide opportunity. We hope to also alleviate rent and childcare obligations by providing safe shelter and childcare while mothers pursue working to earn their own income.
Empowerment- Our goal is to empower women in their own communities to help themselves and others. Forming mentoring relationships amongst women to teach practical and technical skills empower young women and mothers to build a community of support while also becoming self-sufficient.
