Lilly Uganda is a UK charity that aims to provide shelter, medical care and education to children who were living in poverty in Kampala, Uganda. We operate two projects, the first is the Education Programme which currently supports 11 children to attend secondary school providing for school fees uniforms and school requirements. The second project is Rafiki House which is home for children who have been abandoned or have relatives who live in extreme poverty. There are 24 children who stay at the house ranging in age from 5-15 years old. Rafiki House is a place for them to feel the security they have never had before. They are learning they can just focus on their studies and making friends rather than the huge responsibilities that they have previously faced. After many years eating a poor diet and often just one meal a day the children all now receive highly nutritious food and the charity covers all their medical costs. All of the children attend Makamu Junior School. On 1 June a group of adventurers from Staines will be climbing Snowdon in order to raise money for Lilly Uganda, if you would like to sponsor them then please click on the button below.

We started a school uniform bank to help children and young people affected by poverty have the start they need for a good education. We aim to promote pride, dignity and self-esteem in children from families experiencing financial hardship in Edinburgh by providing good-quality school uniform and other clothing, equipment and supplies required for the school day.The families we aim to help often struggle to clothe and feed their children, and for many a new school uniform is out of reach. We want to help the poorest children in our society go to school with some dignity and with the right kit to get the most out of their education.We raise funds and collect donations to source school uniform and other essentials like pencil cases and gym bags. Professionals such as social workers and head teachers as well as community groups like Women’s Aid and Young Carers refer children or teenagers to us and let us know what is needed. We don’t receive any details about the youngsters, just basic information such as age/size. Please donate to help us support as many families as possible.
