Mission and Objectives
Rescue Mission for Street Life is a child protection organisation in Uganda, East Africa. We work with children in fragile settings - slums, street and refugee settings. Our goal is to rescue, rehabilitate and transition these children into safety, health, family, education and livelihood. Over the years, we have supported 1500 children, and our model is play-based and caregiver-engaging.
Context
Rescue Mission for Street Life is a child protection organisation in Uganda working with street-connected and vulnerable children through a structured trauma recovery model. To strengthen institutional sustainability and long-term impact, the organisation seeks to systematise its funding prospect identification process.
Currently, funding research is conducted in a dispersed manner. A structured and prioritised funding prospect database will improve strategic outreach, reduce inefficiencies and strengthen long-term sustainability aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals.
The Online Volunteer’s contribution will enhance organisational capacity for structured resource mobilisation and institutional strengthening.
