You are welcome!

Our association "From Nobody to Somebody" e.V. was founded in 2009. We have made it a matter of the heart to help women and children, especially widows and orphans, in northern Uganda.

We want to contribute through various projects so that they can have hope for their future.

We rely on the three pillars:

Children are allowed to learn

Women earn their living

Visit our wonderful country

Are you interested in our work?

You have the opportunity to sponsor a child. A child who is enabled to go to school, to be fed, - to get a perspective on life.

Our women make beautiful necklaces out of paper, which you can purchase - a beautiful gift for friends and acquaintances and valuable jewelery for yourself. Because you know that you are giving the women the opportunity to take care of themselves. They give you back a piece of dignity.

You are also welcome to visit us in our lodge and experience a few wonderful days here on the edge of Uganda's largest national park. Wake up in the morning with a view of the Nile, experience the beautiful nature here, go on safari, relax in the evening with a beautiful sunset.

Would you like to support our work financially?

Below you can see the bank details if you want to donate something. Since we are a registered association, these donations are tax deductible. We issue donation receipts.

Vision


"Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world."
(Jak. 1:27)

Our current project


With your help, the kitchen and the dormitories could be completed. Thank you so much to everyone who was there for us!

A simple community school is currently needed. Not all children in the surrounding villages can attend our school because the distances are too great and the paths too dangerous. Again and again you can encounter elephants, buffalos or other animals that cross to the Nile to drink water. For this reason we decided to build a primary school with four classrooms in one of the villages so that all children can go to school.

Such a building with four classrooms costs about 12,000 euros. A lot of thanks to a generous donation from Denmark, we were able to credit 3,500 euros. So we are only missing 8,500 euros.

A big thank you to everyone who makes this project possible. You can donate directly here.
