Fight Gender-Based Violence (GBV) & Empower Survivors
PLATFORM for the NEEDY Uganda’s initiative to fight Gender-Based Violence (GBV) and empower survivors aims to address the prevalent issue of violence against women and girls in Uganda. The project recognizes the need for counseling, support, and empowerment for GBV survivors to reintegrate into society and lead fulfilling lives free from violence.
Goal of the Project:
The goal is to reduce GBV incidents in rural and urban Uganda, empower survivors economically and emotionally, promote peaceful and violence-free communities, and educate and sensitize people through radio and community programs.

Additionally, individuals can sponsor a GBV Survivor Empowerment by donating $50/month or $600/year to facilitate vocational training, access to healthcare, and reunification with family or community.
