Twezimbe Africa
Uganda
Twezimbe Africa works to end generational poverty in the community of Kireka, Uganda through teaching children, empowering women, equipping young adults, improving the community, and changing lives with the hope of the gospel of Christ. Twezimbe began as an outreach of New Life Baptist Church, in Uganda. The church leaders had intentionally chosen to have their church meet in the slums of Kireka, to be able to reach out to the most impoverished in their community. In 2016, Twezimbe started offering wood-working classes to young men and women living in the slums of Kireka. Since then, the organization has been expanded to include teaching culinary skills and hairdressing.
