Restoring Hope, Transforming Lives

Mentor Orphans Africa (MOA) was founded in 2015 by a group of passionate Ugandans who saw the urgent need to support orphaned and vulnerable children in their communities. What started as a small grassroots initiative has grown into a nationally recognized organization serving thousands of children across Uganda.

With Uganda's population estimated at 35.4 million and a growth rate of 3.2% per annum with over 70% youth, the country faces immense challenges in delivering basic social services, particularly to children. Primary school retention remains a challenge due to high dropout rates, and the transition rate from primary to secondary and tertiary levels remains critically low.

We established Mentor Orphans Africa to address these challenges head-on, working directly with communities to provide sustainable support and create lasting change. Our holistic approach addresses the root causes of poverty while providing immediate relief to those in greatest need.
