Komuge Community Initiative

KOMUGE COMMUNITY INITIATIVE Who we are. Komuge Community Initiative started its operations in 2017 when a group of like-minded young people got touched by the plight of people in Komuge village and started distributing handouts. As a result, a CBO was fully registered in 2018 with a mandate in the areas of WASH, health, education, livelihood, and agriculture to operate in Komuge Sub-county, Bukedea District. However, three years later, the organisation decided to expand operations into other areas that had similar challenges or even worse, hence the transition into a fully non-government organization in 2022, operating in the districts of Bukedea, Kumi, Ngora, and Serere, respectively, with its Registration Number MIA/NB/2022/09/1786. KOMUGE COMMUNITY INITIATIVE is an NGO formed on clear grounds to bring about development, empowerment, and direct support for the vulnerable members of the community, especially women and vulnerable children. This NGO was established to create a positive impact on the ever-growing problem of vulnerable people in hard-to-reach areas, especially widows, single mothers, child mothers, women and girls living with HIV/AIDS, children, and out-of-school young people. Our focus areas include WASH, gender equality, education, agriculture, child advocacy and community outreach, livelihood through vocational skilling, development training and research, and poverty eradication. Therefore, contributing to the achievement of SDG 1 – No Poverty, 2 – Zero Hunger, 3 – Good health and well-being, 4 – Quality Education, 5 – Gender Equality, 6 – Clean water & Sanitation, 10 – Reduced inequality.
