Chilli Children Trust is a Christian charity working to improve the lives of thousands of children in Uganda, Africa.
Chilli Children Trust supports the North Kigezi Diocese Growers, Orphans and Disabled Children’s Project based in Rukungiri. The Project Team help orphaned and disabled children in 4 districts at the very South Western end of Uganda, bordering Rwanda and DR Congo.
Regular surveys are carried out in remote areas to identify disabled children and provide them with access to surgery, life skills, medical outreach, and education.
We are called Chilli Children because families whose children are registered with the project are taught to grow chilli which gives them a means of self-reliance.
Regular surveys are carried out in remote areas to identify disabled children and provide them with access to surgery, life skills, medical outreach, and education. Services offer include access to a school for the disabled, club foot clinic, surgery at local hospitals, occupational therapy and learning how to grow chilli for export to raise money to cover medical costs for families.
