Your gift will contribute to the recording and editing equipment needed to train a child like Aisha (pictured) in the slums of Kampala, Uganda, how to research, produce, present, record, edit and broadcast a radio show.

Learning these new skills will help empower them, build their confidence, communication skills, and critical thinking. It helps give them, the most powerless in society, a platform to talk about the things that are important to them. And, most importantly, they’ll have fun doing it!

This gift will help us buy a packet of seeds! Too often children like Brian (pictured) go to school hungry. In Bwaise, where Brian lives, families survive on less than 40p a day. Most of the children we work with are lucky if they get one meal a day. Typically, that meal will be a bowl of maize porridge which has little nutritional value.

By buying this gift for your friend or family you're helping to break down the barriers that stand in the way of Brian getting the education that is vital to his future. Brian and his friends will plant the seeds in one of Awamu’s community kitchen gardens where they will be nurtured by a teams of children learning how to grow food.

With plenty of Ugandan sunshine (which we get for free!), they will provide Brian and his friends with a source of delicious, nutritious food. Time got away with you? No problem, we can also send your card in an email format, just send us a message.

Your gift will help a mum or guardian in the slums of Kampala start a business so she can regain control of her life and take better care of her children.

Sometimes life in the slums have a way of keeping you down - your parents pass away and you find yourself the sole provider for your siblings; you're struck down by illness; floods wash away your home leaving you destitute and struggling to feed your family.

This is what happened to Fatuma's family (Fatuma is pictured here with her daughter Winnie), when heavy rains caused open drains to swell.

Water washed through their home, bringing down the walls narrowly missing the children as they slept.

The filthy water washed away their few possessions and contaminated everything else. They were left with nothing and nowhere to go.

This gift will allow us to offer small loans and skills training to mums like Fatuma. Giving them a helping hand to start their business and regain control over their lives.

We'll listen to their business plan and the scale of the loan will depend on the business idea, for example, it would take just £85 for Fatuma to buy her own sewing machine and all the materials she needs to get her own tailoring business started.
