At Nissi Project Uganda, we believe that every child is precious and deserves the chance to grow in love, safety, and opportunity. Founded with faith and a heart for the vulnerable, we provide shelter, education, spiritual guidance, and holistic support that empowers children to reach their full potential.
Your support changes stories. Your gift brings hope. Join us in transforming lives.
Nissi Project Uganda is a Christ-centered registered non-profit organization dedicated to transforming and restoring hope for orphaned and vulnerable children in Uganda.
We provide a safe, nurturing, and Christ-centered environment, education, and holistic support to children who have been orphaned, abandoned, or otherwise marginalized. Our name, "NISSI" (meaning The Lord is my Banner), reflects our commitment to raising a standard of hope and transformation for children in need.
Many arrive without families or basic necessities. Our mission is to give each child a safe home where necessary, quality education, proper healthcare, and emotional support — so they can thrive, flourish, and one day impact their own communities.
To reach out to destitute and vulnerable children in both urban and rural communities, restoring hope for orphans, providing holistic care — physical, emotional, spiritual, and educational support.
To support orphans, vulnerable children, widows, and poor households in building a better future through access to education, healthcare, spiritual guidance, and psycho-social support.
Love & Compassion, Faith & Hope, Integrity, Dignity & Respect, Empowerment, Community & Partnership, and Family Reintegration guide everything we do.
We partner with local leaders, train community champions, and build capacity so change continues long after we leave. Where possible, reuniting children with families.
Every child has the power to become a leader, an innovator, and a change maker. Your partnership makes this possible.
A safe and loving place for children who have nowhere else to turn. Shelter, clothing, nutritious meals, and loving caregivers who nurture, guide, and protect. For many children, Nissi Project is the first place they have called home.

At just 1 year old, Jennifer was abandoned and left without anyone to care for her. Her early life was filled with loneliness and uncertainty, with no safe place to call home. But everything changed when she came to Nissi Project Uganda. Surrounded by love, care, and hope, Jennifer's smile has returned. Today she is thriving in school, making friends, and dreaming of a bright future.
Her story reminds us that every child deserves a chance to be loved and to belong.

When love and support meet a child in need, their life can blossom with endless possibilities.
When Asad was 4 years old, he fell seriously ill. Though he recovered, the treatment left him deaf and mute. He often felt isolated and misunderstood, struggling to adjust to a world that suddenly became silent. Through Nissi Project Uganda, Asad found hope again. With love and encouragement, he is learning to communicate in new ways through sign language and pursuing education.
Even in the face of great challenges, every child deserves the chance to grow, belong, and dream.
When Ibrahim was just 1 year old, tragedy struck. His father passed away due to HIV, leaving him an orphan far too soon. His life began in sorrow with no hope. Through the sponsorship program of Nissi Project Uganda, Ibrahim is sponsored by a kind soul. He found love, care, and a safe place to grow. Today, he is thriving in school, filled with joy and hope for a brighter future.
