Through the Pregnancy Crisis Centre, Wakisa provides temporary shelter, counselling and pre- and post-natal medical care to young mothers, ensuring they don’t have to face pregnancy alone.
My heart swells with joy and gratitude as we celebrate our 20th anniversary this year. It feels just like yesterday when Mrs. Vivian Kityo envisioned a place of safety, hope, and empowerment for Uganda’s pregnant teenagers.
Vivian, founder of Wakisa Ministries, shares a powerful story of how a personal experience sparked her mission to support young girls rejected by their families and communities due to unwanted pregnancies.
Wakisa Ministries is dedicated to providing care, shelter, and skills training to young girls with unplanned pregnancies, aged 12-19, who often face rejection from their families and communities due to cultural stigmas.
