Care Promotion and Poverty Alleviation Initiative-CPAI

Create awareness and supporting vulnerable people

Location: Uganda (Mbarara district)

COVID-19 being a global pandemic we cannot take for granted, we realised that as youth,we have a role to play in creating awareness by translating the WHO guidelines into various languages, holding talk shows, and helping vulnerable groups during lock down. The key challenge is transportation to the most rural areas for creating awareness. Another key challenge is limited funds to hold more talk shows and meet printing costs to create awareness to a big scope, and also limited funds to support our beneficiaries with basic essentials like food.

CPAI doesn't have any partners and the scope of work covers Mbarara district. The people involved in this project are basically our beneficiaries/ target group which are youths and women.

Support

Our budget is approximated to $8,000

We want to purchase transportation to increase out ability to affect remote areas. In this regard we want to purchase a mortorcycle, and we need funds to conduct more talk shows and do the printing, funds to avail people with basic necessities of life especially those faced with hunger problems.

We are fundraising through contributions from community well wishers and applying for present grants.

Other needs: Access to information.
