Introduction
Das Bweya Children’s Home wurde 1968 von dem ugandischen Ehepaar Christopher und Irene Mukasa gegründet und mit Hilfe deutscher Spenden aufgebaut. Aus verschiedenen Gründen musste die Unterstützung in den 1980er Jahren abgebrochen werden. Trotz der schwierigen Rahmen-bedingungen wurde der Betrieb des Waisenheimes bis in die Gegenwart aufrechterhalten.„Zukunft für Bweyas Kinder e.V.“ wurde am 10.09.2011 in Bad Segeberg als gemeinnütziger Förderverein für das „Bweya Children’s Home International“ (BCHI, jetzt “Children Safe Uganda”/CSU) in Uganda gegründet. Der damals vierköpfige Vorstand des Vereins hat das vorliegende Leitbild entworfen. Es soll der Orientierung dienen und die Identifikation aller Mitglieder mit dem Verein fördern.
Vision
We understood that children without the support of a family are the most vulnerable members of society.
In addition we understood that every child needs an opportunity for economic, social, physical, psychological and spiritual development.
Furthermore we understood that caring for homeless children in Uganda requires financial resources that cannot be covered by local donors.
Our vision is that Children Safe Uganda will be able to meet these challenges through our support.
Mission
We want to support Children Safe Uganda in ensuring the basic needs of the children's home by guaranteeing to cover the running costs of school fees, food and staff salaries.
We want to promote the renovation of the residential buildings and the improvement of security and infrastructure. This includes, among other things, fencing the site and optimising the supply of water and electricity.
Wir wollen Hilfe zur Selbsthilfe geben und damit die wirtschaftliche Unabhängigkeit des Kinderheims anstreben, z.B. durch Finanzierung von Zweckbetrieben in den Bereichen Dienstleistung, Handwerk und Landwirtschaft.
Fields of action
Wir unterstützen die Kernarbeit von Children Safe Uganda im Bweya Children’s Home, die in der Betreuung der Waisenkinder liegt.
We see our special task in the provision of financial resources, which we raise through membership and sponsorship fees as well as through contacts with companies willing to donate.
We ensure the efficient and effective use of the funds.
Wir bieten auch praktische Mitarbeit vor Ort an, wenn unsere afrikanischen Partner darin eine sinnvolle Ergänzung ihrer Arbeit sehen. Wir kontrollieren die effiziente und effektive Verwendung der Gelder.
We also offer practical work on the ground if our African partners see it as a useful addition to their work.
