African Soul Initiative

The purpose of this project is to help school going children commute through the dangerous road traffic intersections and deliver them safely to responsible caretakers. African Soul Initiative is passionately committed to enhancing road safety for the most vulnerable members of our community—school children—within the bustling Kampala Metropolitan Area. Our project centers on guiding and safeguarding children as they navigate treacherous roads, instilling invaluable road safety knowledge and discipline, and fostering a sense of collective responsibility within our community for heightened road safety awareness and action.

Four young children, ages 5 to 11, have been left orphaned after losing both parents in a tragic series of events. Their father, a boda-boda rider, was killed in a hit-and-run accident, and their mother passed away from high blood pressure shortly after during his burial. These children now face the harsh realities of life without their parents, and they have been forced to sell fruit on the streets to survive. Our goal is to give them the childhood they deserve by providing both immediate welfare support and access to education. By funding their school fees, basic needs, and emotional counselling, we can empower these children to build a brighter future.
