At Bootim Foundation, we believe that every child deserves the tools to achieve their dreams. Through our Skills Development Program, we provide older children and young adults with the skills, mentorship, and resources to succeed in life. Join us in empowering the next generation to thrive, contribute, and break the cycle of poverty.
In Uganda, many young people face barriers to meaningful education and employment opportunities, limiting their potential for a secure future. Our Skills Development Program focuses on building practical skills that allow young people to become self-sufficient and successful in their communities. We believe that by empowering youth with skills and knowledge, we create lasting pathways out of poverty and inspire a generation ready to make a positive impact.
Our Skills Development Program is centered on practical, hands-on training that provides real-world skills and confidence. Our approach includes:
Offering training in fields such as carpentry, tailoring, agriculture, and other trades, we equip young adults with skills they can use to secure employment or start their businesses.
Providing essential computer skills and digital literacy training to prepare children for the modern workforce, helping them stay competitive in a tech-driven world.
Teaching personal development, financial management, and leadership skills to build well-rounded, responsible young adults.
Connecting youth with mentors who offer support, guidance, and advice, helping them shape career goals and make informed life choices.
The Skills Development Program has transformed lives by offering young people a foundation of skills and support to pursue their dreams. Here’s a glimpse of our impact:
