Workshops & Exhibitions

Overview

We organise and participate in a number of events ranging from workshops, outreaches, training, conferences/summits, exhibitions, campaigns, and also graduation ceremonies for our beneficiaries.

Most are mainly spearheaded by our partners on one hand and our team of dedicated volunteers on the other hand. Some of the events we have participated in include, Breakfast Jam, Hip Hop for Society, Street Kids Christmas Party, Children’s Gala For Hope, Meet the Boss and our very own annual in-house Unseen Me Exhibition.

UnseenMe Exhibition is an exhibition aimed at showcasing to community how much potential children living on the streets possess through enormous talents and art work. It is through this platform that we believe these children can freely express their ideas, talents and break stereotypes conveyed by the general public.

Our very first of this kind happened on 4th February 2017 in Kampala with subsequent editions in 2018 and 2019. This event has seen over 100 children living on the streets showcase different skills through drama, music, art and fashion.
