Shekinah Hope and Community Programme

Shekinah Kids is a club within Shekinah Christian School, a community-based school in Wakiso-Bujuuko, Uganda. Founded in January 2024, it currently serves 46 children from kindergarten to Primary 5, aged 3–13. The school was created from a personal story of resilience and aims to support vulnerable children, including orphans, children with sickle cell disease, and those from low-income families.

Its mission is to nurture hearts and shape minds, helping children reach their full potential through education, care, and encouragement. The school also works with community organizations to improve health and wellbeing alongside learning.

Volunteers support teaching, daily classroom activities, mentoring, and cultural exchange, helping children build confidence, discover talents, and develop life skills.

- Shekinah is a welcoming and loving community where every person is valued. Even if you are not formally trained to work with children, you will be supported and will naturally find your place within the environment.

- You will experience a true cultural exchange through traditional African meals, cooking, music, dance, and storytelling, while building strong bonds with joyful and affectionate children.

- Uganda, known as the “Pearl of Africa,” offers unforgettable travel experiences such as the source of the Nile, national parks, and the vibrant city life of Kampala, which volunteers can explore in their free time with guidance.

- With the warmth of the people, the beauty of nature, and the opportunity to make a meaningful impact in children’s lives, volunteering here becomes a journey of friendship, discovery, and lasting memories.
