The Experience

Our school Kitchen serves meals to children from low-income families, orphans, and families affected by poverty, HIV/AIDS, or displacement. For many of these children, the meal they receive here is the only one they can rely on each day. By volunteering with us, you'll help ensure that no child goes hungry and that families in crisis are supported with compassion and care.

It was fun, and I felt so welcomed. I enjoyed volunteering at Save the organization (CACI ), Mukono, Uganda. The children and everyone else, are so engaging, and they taught me about their lives and welcomed me with open arms. I want to thank especially Miss Resty, who is a lovely, kind host, for helping me settle into the centre. I could and would recommend it to everybody. It was really short but it made me open my eyes to a lot of new things. Thank you all, I will be back God's will. 🙏

I volunteered for two weeks at CACI and it was a life-changing experience.The NGO does serious and important work,providing social and economic support to children,young people and adults in local communities.They also teach vocational skills and provide palliative care,which demonstrates their deep commitment to creating the organization.I was warmly welcomed by Mrs.Resty and the team(Maurice,Jonah and Ruth).The accommodation provided for volunteers is excellent.I was able to contribute and learn a lot about the local reality.I hope to return one day to help even more.I highly recommend it.

My time as CACI has been my best volunteering experience without any doubt. Resty is an incredibly inspiring, motivated, and strong person and entrepreneur who is on a mission to elevate the lives of as many people as she possibly can. I was welcomed like a family member in the incredible team of warm and talented people. On day one, clear projects were outlined collaboratively, well prepared by the team beforehand. You will see the impact of your work and feel the gratitude of all you're helping every day. The private bedroom, shower, and kitchen are well-maintained and cleaned daily.

Resty replied

Mike was a volunteer that is friendly, hardworking and task oriented with quality work. The time he spent with CACI looked small but worthy it because he changed our website to standard with perfect content and photos he was more of our staff for 2 weeks. Thank you Mike for tirelessly contributing to our visibility and we will always open doors for you to join us again in future wishing you all the best of your life with volunteer work.

I can just recommend this place. The kids, teachers, enviroment, school, the house and the local community is wonderful. I feel that i got a new family which one is accepted and protect me. If you look for a place in Uganda to do some volunteer work you won't regret it if you choose the CACI.
