Resilience and Revival: Single Mothers Forge New Paths in Jinja.

INJA, UGANDA – The burden of extreme poverty falls disproportionately on single mothers in regions like Jinja, Uganda. Navigating daily survival for their families without consistent support, they face immense pressure to secure income in a volatile economic landscape. This persistent challenge highlights the urgent need for sustainable empowerment strategies.

The Kaliba Foundation has introduced a beacon of hope through its vocational training and crafting programs specifically designed for single mothers. These initiatives go far beyond simply teaching a skill. By providing comprehensive training in crafts like tailoring, weaving, and jewelry making, the foundation equips these women with the tools for economic independence. Participants gain not only a sustainable source of income but also enhanced self-esteem and a vital community support network. In a city where social services often fall short, the Kaliba Foundation’s programs are crafting dignity and self-reliance, one resilient mother at a time.
