BIG THANKS!

Yimba Uganda would like to say a HUGE thank-you to everyone who donated towards Yimba Uganda’s ‘Female Sanitation Project’ through our online appeal!

We were so amazed by the generosity shown by members of our wider community and we are pleased to be able to say that we reached our target of $2,000! This amazing achievement has allowed us to purchase all of the sewing machines for our tailoring course!  Yay!

Take a look at our classroom, it’s coming together so nicely and we can’t wait for our women to begin making the sanitation packs! None of this would have been possible without all of your help.


We look forward in sharing with you all, the direct impact you have had on the lives of so many throughout Uganda! So stay tuned in the coming months with more updates!


Thanks again for having the heart and passion to bless others, you are all a true inspiration to us all.


Keep remembering to spread #lovetotheworld!

Yimba Office


Big things are happening for Yimba Uganda in 2015. 2015 is the year that Yimba Uganda has launched our incredible new Female Sanitation Program, kicking it off with our first pack distribution/ hygiene workshop which was ran in Wairaka, Jinja. 

The day was a huge success and we cannot wait to grow this program further.  As most of you would already know, we have been fundraising for sewing machines to launch our tailoring course, in which local Ugandan women will be trained and employed to create these packs for young women throughout the country.

We are excited to announce that we have officially rented a house in Kampala, where the Yimba office will be located, and where the tailoring course will be ran from. It is a beautiful space and we cannot wait to see all the incredible things that will come out of it.


Please remember to keep us in your prayers as we continue to plan for this program, which will be officially launched in the coming weeks!  Watch this space! #lovetotheworld x


An incredible achievement

We would love to take this special opportunity to introduce to you all a very generous, hardworking and inspirational women, Jenny Elliot!

Jenny Elliot is truly a remarkable woman and we are so honored that she has been a part of our dream and passion in changing the lives of women throughout Uganda.

Jenny has recently donated her time, her energy and her finances to invest into our Female Sanitation Project. Jenny took on the ‘Operation Black Hawk Challenge’ which is a grueling challenge, testing ones skill and endurance through a military style obstacle course. It was a long and hard challenge but Jenny came out a champion at the other end! Awesome work Jenny!

We speak for a lot of people when we say we are truly proud of your efforts, Jenny! You are a truly inspirational women and we are so happy there are such change makers in the world like you.  Thank-you once again for believing in this program and for your remarkable investment. We cannot wait to share with you the extraordinary impact you have had on the lives of women in Uganda!
