Welcome to CAPAIDS Uganda

Where communities are the solution and the story.

Somewhere in Northern Uganda, a young woman named Akello (Not Real name) is pressing fabric through a sewing machine for the first time. A year ago she had nothing no school fees, no skills, no road out of the cycle her family had lived for generations.

Since 2007 we have worked alongside Uganda’s most marginalised communities not parachuting in, but of the communities we serve delivering integrated programmes across five pillars:

Education
Social Protection
Livelihoods
Health
Humanitarian Response

Change does not Happen from the Outside.

It grows from within, in the hands of people who live it every day. Whether you are a donor, a partner, a volunteer or simply someone who cares, there is a place for you here.
