Über uns

The Rescue Women Foundation is a women and girls' charity, founded in 2017. We work on creating sustainable livelihoods for vulnerable women, girls, elderly women, and teenage mothers among others primarily through entrepreneurship and access to startup capital, education, and health, and in addition, community engagement.
We are a christian charity and in all our work, we value integrity; we seek to be accountable, transparent, honest and to fulfill commitments in all we do.
The Rescue Women Foundation is bridging inequality in Uganda by empowering vulnerable women and girls.

Mission
To sustain livelihoods of vulnerable women and girls through education, entrepreneurship, and community engagement.

Our work
• Rescuing and restoring hope to sexually abused teenage mothers.
• Connecting and empowering communities
• Empowering women financially, emotionally and spiritually

Programs:
• Empowering Women Economically (EWE) Project, whose goal is ‘to strengthen women’s businesses for sustainable economic development. The objectives of this project are two-fold; ‘building grassroots women’s capacity in basic bookkeeping to track the viability of their businesses’ and ‘strengthening smallholder businesses led by women for economic resilience’.
• Girls’ Education Project (GEP) addresses barriers to girls’ education including instructing girls to make reusable sanitary pads as one sustainable solution to keep girls in school. This project directly pays school fees for vulnerable girls.
• Teenage Mother Support Program (Teen Mom Project – TMP) seeks to support teenage mothers through counselling and equipping them with entrepreneurial skills including tailoring and hairdressing among others.
