ABOUT
We are a family made up of children from different parts of Uganda (East Africa). In 2013, and the next years, we have been rescuing orphaned, vulnerable and abandoned children, placing them in a loving family and equipping them with skills and empowering them to become strong leaders in the future and their communities. . . Through dance, song and sharing their love of Uganda, these children connect to each other and the world. They see their own potential — they have hope for their future. Masaka kids Africana is not just a dancing group but a full community based initiative. There are other projects that we put a hand on to see that we provide on and offsite of the Masaka kids Africana home. . . SUPPORT US: We rely on the generosity of our extended family — people like you — Any support can helps to provide all children with food,education and health support.so we can educate, feed, clothe and support all of our children. Every dollar we save from our performance is also a dollar earned for the continued care of our kids. Our music and dance troupe children will soon begin training again during their school term breaks and over select weekends. Show your support of music and advocacy - it`s so easy to do. .

Volunteers with the Masaka Kids Africana come from all walks of life. What they share is a passion to make a difference for the children of Africa. Whatever your involvement — from a long-term chaperone to a short-term team member to an on-tour intern — you will be a part of making thousands of lives more meaningful in Africa. . . THERE IS AN ORPHAN CRISIS IN UGANDA: . Currently, at least one in every four households in Uganda has an orphan. 14% of all children (2.43 million children) have been orphaned — nearly half due to HIV / AIDS. Close to 60% of Uganda’s population are children below the age of 18 years old. Uganda has a total population of 30.7 million people, 17.1 million are children. Over half of Uganda’s children (8.1 million children – 51%) are either critically or moderately vulnerable, while 63% live with caregivers other than their biological parents.
