Children Rights Advocacy
MAA (Mercy Alive Africa) is aiming at protecting the children from child Abuse. The abuse of children can happen both outside and inside their families.
Our struggle to support the children is by using law to ensure that children are safe and secure from their abusers with the organization interest to help support them with a upper loud voice.
We do work closely with other non-profit organizations that have the same goals and interests of children safe.
We plan on organising Child advocacy workshops to involve the parents, the community and children themselves to know their rights and how to obey and respect them country wide. We hope and believe this will be successful and will help the whole community at large.
What is Child advocacy?
Child advocacy refers to a range of individuals and other different advocacy organizations, who work, defend and speak out on the interests of children.
An individual or organization engaging in advocacy typically seeks to protect children's rights which could be or maybe abused in a various ways. We are looking forward and pleasured to work with anyone who wants the best for the children.
Ways to give.
If you are interested in supporting Mercy Alive Africa by helping us fundraise, that is amazing! We would love for you to be a part of the team! Every little bit helps our organisation in tremendous ways! Support goes towards our monthly costs of programs like buying clothes and food and soap for the boys. Also, funds can help pay resettlement costs, hospital costs and buy much needed vocational training supplies for the boys and educating the boys. In addition, you will be helping to retrace and reunite boys with their families when you are able to give! Fundraisers can also be focused on special events. For example, Every December we have a large Christmas dinner for the boys and our staff.
Please contact us before hosting your fundraiser so we can help to provide you with information and with the event planning and organization!
Dinner party
This dinner party can be as simple or elaborate as you would like. Make a homemade dinner for a few friends at home, or cater the event at a private reserved dining room of your choice. Determine the price for each seat at your table(s) and send out your invitations for the event! You could also organize a progressive dinner, whereby you gather a group of friends and plan a meal together. Then each friend prepares and serves one course at their home. Or ask individuals to host and you all just travel and eat! The party moves from place to place during the night. You could share about one aspect of Frontline at each home.
Church or community Garage Sale!
First you would need to set a date for your sale. Yard sales usually attract the most attention on Friday afternoons and early Saturday mornings. Next, ask friends, families and neighbours to donate their gently used items for a church or multi-family yard sale. Find a safe place to store all your donated items and a near-the-road location for high traffic of customers! Organize a day and time where families can drop off their goods, or arrange to pick up the items yourself. The key to this fundraiser is publicity-publish your ads at local coffee houses, on Craig’s List (craigslist.org) and in your local newspaper. Don’t forget the signs along the road to direct the way to the sale!
Craft market booth
Do you have the spiritual gift of crafting? Are you a Pinterest and Etsy connoisseur? Have you considered designing, creating, and selling products for the street boys of Uganda? If so, we could help to provide you with our beautiful local fabrics here in Uganda and you could sew away! Or glue away! Local markets are an excellent way to spread the news about the organisation to many people win just one day of selling. Let us know if you want us to send you a package of our beautiful local fabrics!
