Programs
Drilling Water for Communities
Access to clean and safe water is a basic human right, yet many communities, schools, and mosques in Eastern Uganda still rely on unsafe sources. Merciful Aid Foundation drills boreholes, installs modern water systems, and provides hand-pumps and storage facilities to ensure a steady supply of clean water. We also train local communities to manage and maintain these water points, reducing waterborne diseases and eliminating the burden of long-distance water collection—especially for women and children.
Constructing & Maintaining Mosques
Mosques are vital not only as places of worship but also as hubs for community education, unity, and development. We build new mosques in rural and underserved areas, renovate existing structures, and furnish them with prayer materials to create safe, welcoming, and accessible spaces. By bringing masjids closer to the people, we strengthen Islamic education, foster unity, and empower communities spiritually and socially.
Seasonal Projects
Special seasons offer an opportunity to extend relief and joy to vulnerable families. During Ramadan, Eid, and other key periods, Merciful Aid Foundation distributes food packages, clothing, and essential supplies to the poor and needy. We also organize community iftars, provide school supplies at the start of academic years, and launch emergency relief programs during droughts, floods, or other crises, ensuring that seasonal support brings real impact to struggling households.
Empowering Communities
We believe the most sustainable way to reduce poverty is through empowerment. Our programs provide vocational and skills training to youth and women, support small-scale businesses and entrepreneurship, and teach communities about income-generating activities such as farming, poultry, and small trade. By equipping people with practical skills and financial knowledge, we help them build self-reliance and break the cycle of poverty.
Campaigning for Change
Lasting transformation requires both grassroots action and systemic change. Through our campaigns, we raise awareness on poverty, illiteracy, and lack of clean water, while partnering with NGOs, CBOs, and government agencies to influence policies that improve community welfare. We organize workshops, forums, and stakeholder meetings to share knowledge and mobilize resources locally and internationally, ensuring a stronger, united push for sustainable development.
Protecting Life and Dignity
Every life is precious, and every person deserves dignity. Merciful Aid Foundation provides emergency relief to families affected by disasters, disease outbreaks, or displacement. We supplement government health services by establishing private health facilities and conducting medical outreach programs in underserved areas. We also supply essential healthcare items such as medicines, hygiene kits, and nutritional support, while promoting human rights awareness and education to safeguard the well-being of all.
