Volunteer with BoHU, Uganda.

BoHU is a community-based non-profit located in Mukono, Uganda. Established by Isaac Ssamba in 2006, Beacon of Hope Uganda designs and conducts programs which contribute to the welfare and social productivity of disadvantaged individuals and communities with an emphasis on children and youth.

We address some of the most pervasive problems in rural Uganda, including HIV/AIDS, malaria, hunger, education, poverty, access to clean drinking water, and orphaned children. In addition, we focus on empowering the youth of Uganda through leadership and skills training. BoHU is founded on the principles that our common humanity is more important than our individual differences. We therefore operate on a non-political, non-denominational, and non-sectarian basis, welcoming each and every Ugandan in need.

Although the focus of our programs is on providing resources for quality education in under-resourced communities, in order to uplift the youngest of our society it is often necessary to first assist adults and the communities in which they live. Past and/or ongoing projects conducted in the general community include feeding the destitute, outreach, counseling, and assistance to people living with HIV/AIDS and other medical ailments, counseling and immediate assistance to individuals who have been raped or defiled, building of village wells, assistance with women’s craft groups, and organization and ongoing assistance with an organic community garden.
