Benefice Mission Partner
Our Benefice supports Karis Kids
Karis Kids is an initiative, started in 2007, which brings hope to children orphaned by AIDS in Uganda. The Christian charity integrates these children into, and supports them with, adoptive families. The aim is to place orphans with the families of relatives, but when this is not possible, then with other households in the local church, St Paul's, Kampala. The majority of those in the parish live in the Okuvu slum, and this is one of the poorest areas of Kampala.
