Kabumba

A rural community with extraordinary potential in Mityana District, Uganda.

Where is Kabumba?

Kabumba is a rural community in Mityana District, Central Uganda, along the Hoima Road corridor. Most families rely on small-scale farming, with limited access to healthcare, quality education, skills training and economic opportunities.

It is a community full of potential, ambition and hardworking people. Our aim is to work alongside them to create opportunities, improve livelihoods and build a more sustainable future.

Small community. Big potential. Lasting change.

The story so far

Our partnership with Kabumba began with a single, practical need: water.

With the support of the Saintfield Christmas Charity Ride community, we funded a borehole that became the only water source for over 100 households. That borehole did more than quench thirst — it proved that sustainable change is possible when a community is listened to and invested in.

Today, the water project continues to serve families every day. But the people of Kabumba asked for more than water. They asked for education, opportunity, and a future. That is why we are now building the Kabumba Model Village.

Why the model village matters

Kabumba faces the same challenges as many rural communities in Uganda. But together we can address them holistically — not one problem at a time, but as an integrated vision for the whole community.

Clean water

Many households still rely on unsafe sources, making waterborne illness a daily risk.

Quality education

Children lack safe classrooms, books, and digital tools to thrive in today’s world.

Health access

Basic healthcare and sanitation are limited, especially for mothers and young children.

Livelihoods

Youth unemployment and subsistence farming trap families in cycles of poverty.

The Kabumba Model Village vision

A sustainable, community-led model where families can learn, work, access healthcare, and build a brighter future.

Education

A school and library that open doors for children and adults.

Healthcare

Basic medical services and clean water to protect families.

Enterprise

Skills training and small-business support to build financial independence.

Community

A shared space where people gather, learn, worship, and grow together.
