Covid-19 APPEAL
Due to COVID-19, food prices have more than doubled in Uganda! Many of our children rely on the meals they receive at school but the education system is still shut down.
Please consider supporting Ocia Organisation and donating to help us continue to provide food relief packages to our children and community!
The fear and destruction wreaked by the global COVID-19 pandemic is threatening the structure and security of all our lives.
Most fragile communities, where health systems are weak and vast numbers of people live in extreme poverty in overcrowded settlements, the virus promises to bring untold suffering.
Hand-washing is a luxury available only to those who have access to water. Social distancing is not possible for those living in overcrowded settlements, such as refugees. And lock down is not an option for families who live hand to mouth and must leave the house daily for work, and for food. The lives of these people are genuinely hanging in the balance.
For those living in extreme poverty in urban slums, and for those communities affected or previous humanitarian disasters, this is just the beginning. But with some input from those able to give, we can prevent the virus from taking hold.
If you can, please help us save the Ocia's most vulnerable children and their families.
