Bushenyi Alliance for Rural Health and Development

Less than half the children in Bushenyi receive education beyond the 6th grade.

The HIV/AIDS epidemic literally wiped out a generation in Uganda. The median age in Uganda is 14.8 years old -- the lowest in the world.

Often these orphans are taken into extended families already struggling to provide food and shelter and cannot afford to pay for their education.

Many children are forced to suffer in poverty. The girls are pushed into marriage with older men, beginning a family as early as 12 or 13 years old.


Help us ensure a brighter future for these children.

BARHD sponsors provide hope and opportunity for 230 Uganda orphans. By giving them the opportunity to continue their education, you give these orphans the chance to make better lives for themselves.

$350 BARHD scholarships support one orphan for an entire year:

  • Room and board
  • Tuition
  • Books
  • School uniform

For a dollar per day, you could change an orphan's life forever.

See the impact of your donation first-hand. Through letters and photos, you'll be able to form a lasting bond with your student.

Let them know they can begin classes soon.

Join our sponsors and truly make a difference in these orphans' lives.
