1.0 Introduction
The challenge of HIV/AIDS and street children still remains one of the most
problems facing the central region hence making many children more
vulnerable to several aspects such as lack of access to education, shelter,
feeding, socialization and integration in the community. Consequently this has
compelled Kalambi Community out Reach Project to initiate out such project that
is aimed at up lifting the conditions of the most vulnerable children with in central
part since it is registered to be having the highest number of such children.
1.1Background

Kalambi community out reach project is a local Community Based Organization

which started in 2009 and duly registered with Directorate of Community Based
Services (Reg No. WCBO/1096/11). It is a non profit Organization that aims at
improving the living conditions of rural orphans, disabled children and youths,
women, men, their families and communities to implement programs in
Agriculture, Vocational training, health, education, income generation, water,
sanitation and hygiene improvements, as well as formal and informal education.
The project came up following the living and rampant community problems such
as the rising number of children that had become orphaned due to HIV/AIDS,
street children, the displaced, increased unemployment mostly among the rural
women and men, low levels of agricultural development, high levels of illiteracy
that rendered most people unemployed, lack of water and the general poor
sanitation hygiene hence the need to restore those that have been affected.
Community and rural development centered is the approach to all our work. This
puts all the marginalized, illiterates and unemployed at our focus so as to give
them an opportunity to better improved lives. Every thing we do is geared
towards working and improving all parts of the community to enable them meet
their needs and ensure that they become self reliant. Kacop works with TASO,
Wakiso district local government, Government of Uganda through the Ministry of
Agriculture, the Ministry of Gender (children and youths department).

1.2 Location

The project is located in Bulaga Kalambi local council zone 1 Nakabugo Parish
Wakiso sub-county Wakiso district. It is situated about 18Km from the capital of
Kampala.

1.3 Vision of the Project

A world where every body enjoys fundamental human basic needs in the
absence of poverty, ignorance and disease. A society where the disabled can
live in peace and enjoy their basic human rights of education, social justice and
socialization.

1.4 Mission

To assist the neediest children with in central Uganda have access to basic
shelter as well as advocating for other basic needs.

1.5 Objectives of the Orphanage project

1). To have a permanent home where children affected by HIV/AIDs, street

children and other vulnerable children can stay in peace.

2). To have a rehabilitation center where children in difficult circumstances such

as the displaced can leave.

3). To use the home so as to advocate for the rights of children mostly those that
have been vulnerable.

4). To have a Resource development and empowerment center that can train the
community on child protection.

1.6 Statement of the Project

HIV/AIDs, street children and other vulnerable children in Uganda continue to

remain one those faced with a number of challenges in our communities mostly
in central Ugandan. Though some interventions have been put in place, they
continue to remain inadequate and only benefit a few children with in the
interests of the provider but the question would still remain on those from the
remote areas that may be in need of such similar help. The government and
other NGOs have tried to ensure that children in difficult situations have access
to different needs, and sectors, most of them still seem unable to access them
due to negative attitudes towards them hence making them more vulnerable. The
rising and timely political conflicts in the country have also escalated the problem
of street children, displaced in search of safe places and homes but the children
find them no where hence being subjected to several abuses such as rape,
defilement, child exploitation, illiteracy compelling them to engage in prostitution.

The government of Uganda through the ministry of Gender stated that about 25%
of the children are HIV/AIDS, 20% have been forced to move on streets so as to
get shelter and find a way of living while 12% have been displaced from their
homes due to political insecurity and only 3% of them can access their basic
necessities from other Organizations and yet the existing orphanage homes
cannot accommodate the in fluxing number of such children in the country. It is
upon this ground that Kalambi Community out reach project has designed a
project that will help resettle children in difficult circumstances so as to
reintegrate them in the community hence the need for an Orphanage home.

2.0 Description of the project.

According to the ministry of Gender, social and economic development annual
reports 2010, 2011, Uganda is a home to 34 million people of which half of them
are children but characterized with quite a number of challenges such as lack of
access to basic shelter resulting from problems such as civil wars, HIV/AIDS
child abuse of which domestic violence is among the characteristics rendering
many children home less. According report Kalambi Community Out Reach
Project produced indicated that many children with the communities of central
Uganda did not have shelter as some at night were staying with in the remains of
old cars, drainage channels, Those that come at the project claimed that they did
not have were to stay and that when it rained, their life was at a stand still. The
fact that some children had become total orphans with out a care taker, they
resorted to roaming on streets. It is not the failure of these children but attributed
to inadequate measures that can be accessed by all vulnerable children.
Consequently such a survey gave rise to Kalambi community outreach project
start a home where such children can find peace.

2.1 Activities of the project

a) Education provision.

b) Medical provision

c) Sports development activity

d)Human rights advocacy

e) Guidance and counseling activities among children

f) Music and skills development among children.

2.2 Justification of the project

The project is overdue and important in that it will enable such children to be
restored hence having access to basic human necessities such housing
education, feeding, socialization and integration in the community.

The project will help the community have access to skills that are geared at child
protection. This project is so vital to the community and that it deserves high
priority. It is so feasible and sustainable since it has been initiated following the
increasing number of HIV/AIDs, street and other vulnerable children in the
region.

The project is desirable and acceptable to the intended beneficiaries as several

requests and initiatives have been asked by the community for a project to
initiate out such a program that could help to restore hope for the vulnerable
children in the region. It is also in support of the on going government programs
to improve on the plight of orphans and other vulnerable children in the country.
The project is line with the goals of Kalambi Community Out Reach project to
have a community where all children can enjoy their basic human rights.
Therefore the government’s policy will be partially implemented through the
project and community aspirations together with the motivation of the
beneficiaries. It is also envisaged that the success of this project and its impact if
and when carried out act as a plat form to advocate for other programs that can
foster child protection and development. Indeed the benefits will produce a
multiplier effect in that other development partners in far communities will
emulate and plan similar programmes that could lead to improvement on the
quality of lives of children in difficult circumstances in our communities.

2. 3 Description of beneficiaries and planned benefits

2.3.1 Direct beneficiaries

At least about 200 children with in the communities in central Uganda will benefit
directly from the project. Their health and well being as well as access to better
human basic needs like education, feeding, and medical care will be improved.
Their continued discrimination, isolation with in the community will be broken
down. Consequently the children will have time to interact with other people ad
involve themselves in other productive activities in the community that could help
them break their cycles of vulnerability.

2.3.2 Indirect Beneficiaries

The local community people, the facilitators of the project will be the indirect
beneficiaries. The central and local government means will be able to realize
another achievement as far as restoration and resettlement of children is
concerned.

so as to sustain the project. Nevertheless, the project staffs will lay out strategies
