DIGNITY HEALTH EDUCATION LIVELIHOODS LONGEVITY

Dignity

Fight for the Forgotten restores human dignity to marginalized communities like the Batwa by securing land rights, building homes, and ensuring access to clean water and sanitation.

Health

Fight for the Forgotten is building a strong future by providing vital nursing services and constructing a health center in remote areas where access to medical care is hours away.

Education

Fight for the Forgotten believes education is a gateway to transformation, building a school and supporting children’s access to quality education while also offering literacy and life skills programs for adults.

Livelihoods

Fight for the Forgotten promotes sustainable development by empowering communities through income-generating activities and vocational training in areas like farming, crafts, tailoring, hairdressing, welding, and organic agriculture to foster self-reliance and family support.

Longevity

By addressing root causes of poverty like lack of clean water, education, and opportunity, Fight for the Forgotten supports long-term, community-led wellbeing through programs designed for generational impact and lasting change.

Updates from the Field

Bundibugyo Update - September 2025

Community Space & Health Center Construction

The construction of the Community Centre and Health Centre in Olangama is nearly complete! Architect Felix, CEO of LocalWorks and our construction partner, recently led a site inspection, and everything is progressing beautifully!

We can’t wait to open the doors this November, giving the community access to a space for connection and a health facility a few steps away from their homes. No more 3-hour walks to access medical care.

Kisoro Update - September 2025

Mgahinga and Gitebe Water Tanks Complete

The water tanks in both Mgahinga and Gitebe are now flowing with clean water. No more walking miles in search of clean water. The commissioning of the Mgahinga Water Tank was honored by the presence of the District Senior Health & Environment Officer and the Assistant District Water Officer.

To ensure sustainability, both communities have also received training from the Water User Committee on safe and responsible water use.

Garden Preparation and Manure Distribution

Bokshi manure was distributed to 28 households in the Gitebe Batwa community, alongside seeds for planting. Distribution was based on the size of each household’s prepared garden. To ensure success, community members were also given a practical demonstration on how to plant the seeds, held in the garden of Karwemera Bosco.
