Teenage girls in Uganda are facing horrific abuse and are often left pregnant and alone. Their stories break my heart, but I'm determined to do something to make a difference.
Survival at Stake
In Uganda, the pandemic closures and school disruptions have caused startling rises in the number of cases of sexual violence and teenage pregnancies. Unable to return to school because of being pregnant and often rejected by their communities, these young girls lack hope for any way out of poverty and often contemplate taking their own life out of anguish and desperation. These precious young girls are also among the most likely in the world to die in childbirth or lose their babies because they don’t have access to or can’t afford medical services.
There are 1200 teen moms like Chantal in the video above that we can rescue.
Your gift will help:
Meet Urgent Housing needs for 51 teen moms and their babies at the Princess Shelter Residences
Reach 140 Teen moms and their babies in rural areas through community-based medical clinics and motherhood support programs
Care for 20 survivors of sexual abuse by providing emergency health care
Provide Safe Motherhood spaces for 1,000 Teen moms and their babies at eight health centers around Uganda
Serve over 2,600 Young mothers and children with access to medical, mental, and social care before and after their baby is born.
