Bless a Child Foundation is a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting children with cancer and their caregivers throughout treatment.

We provide free accommodation, nutritious meals, psychosocial support, transportation, educational support, and other essential care services that help children access treatment with dignity, comfort, and hope.

Founded in Uganda, Bless a Child Foundation exists to make sure that no child and no family has to face cancer alone.

Our Story

Bless a Child Foundation was born out of a deep realization that children undergoing cancer treatment needed more than medicine alone. Many families travel long distances to reach treatment centers, often arriving exhausted, frightened, and with very limited resources. For many, the journey to treatment comes with no safe place to stay, little access to proper meals, and almost no emotional or practical support. These challenges can make an already painful experience even harder for both the child and the caregiver.

What began as a response to this urgent need grew into a long-term commitment to walk alongside children and families during one of the hardest seasons of their lives.

In March 2010, Bless a Child Foundation opened its first home in Kampala to provide care and support services to children undergoing cancer treatment. Since then, the organization has grown into a trusted source of hope and practical support for thousands of children and families.

Today, our work continues to restore dignity, reduce the burden on caregivers, and create a safe and loving environment where children can heal, rest, learn, and simply be children.
