ABOUT US

Our impact

World Action Fund is an indigenous, nonprofit organization founded in 2014, operating in Uganda.

Our approach is holistic supporting both life-saving and life-changing solutions for the world’s poorest and most vulnerable people. From rapid emergency response to innovative development programming, we operate in remote, rural, and hard-to-reach areas to ensure that no one is left behind. What sets us apart is our commitment to collaboration. We actively build partnerships with governments, non-profit organizations, and local communities to maximize our reach and impact. Through innovative, evidence-based strategies, we remain adaptable and responsive to changing needs, delivering sustainable, community-driven solutions that create lasting change.

Empowering Teenage and single mothers

In Terego district, Uganda, single and teenage mothers face daily struggles of poverty, early motherhood, and limited opportunities. With no stable income or collateral, they can’t access loans to start businesses, leaving them trapped in a cycle that often repeats through their daughters vulnerable to teenage pregnancy and exploitation.

But hope is not lost. The group has started a savings box, and with your support, we can empower more women, protect girls, and build a future where no mother must choose between feeding her children and sending them to school.

World Action Fund (WAF) is seeking to raise money for individuals with limb differences in Uganda.

WAF has received surveys from 11 hospitals, 2 refugee camps and 4 regions in Uganda, and identified at least 373 patients and an additional 500 to be identified with below-shoulder, below-elbow and below-wrist amputations that have severely impacted their ability to find work, and often have caused them to be alienated from their communities
