Overview

Help Us Deliver Urgent Aid to Kiteezi, Kampala

The already critical situation in Kiteezi, Kampala, has taken a devastating turn as a massive landfill slide has destroyed homes and claimed many lives. Entire neighborhoods have been buried under debris, leaving countless families displaced and in urgent need of help.

Following a thorough needs assessment, we have determined that the most pressing requirements in Kiteezi are emergency shelter and food supplies. Local authorities and aid organizations are stretched beyond capacity, trying to provide for the displaced and vulnerable. We are working closely with our partners on the ground to deliver essential aid to as many affected families as possible. Our primary focus is on providing temporary shelter and distributing food to those in desperate need.

Victims are rising by the day. Your support will help to ensure that aid workers have the resources they need. Your donations have helped us to support displaced families to survive for the meantime. With your help so far, we have managed to provide the following to victims in Kiteezi.
