what we do
Karis Kids links family to family and church to church.
We aim to link up individual churches in the UK with, at present, churches in Uganda to partner together in caring for the orphaned children. Within those linked churches, we link up family group to family.
- love and acceptance
- food and shelter
- nuture and protection
Karis Kids supports a full time community worker attached to All Saints Cathedral who administers the project in Kampala and works closely with every family. The majority of our placement families live in the slums in Kampala with dependents of their own.
At Karis Kids we have set a means for families or groups of individuals to give financial support to a link Ugandan family.
Support of £50 per month provides such things as school fees, medical expenses, clothes, food and soap. All Saints also organizes regular get togethers for the families focussing on parenting skills, life skills, and offering pastoral support.
