Together We THRIVE
THRIVEGulu’s savings and support groups are working together to heal from the trauma of conflict in Northern Uganda. Groups provide economic, social, and emotional support so that individuals, families, and communities are able to grow and THRIVE.
We work with our groups to provide mental health, basic education, and economic empowerment programs. When you sponsor a group, your monthly or annual gift goes directly into our programs for your group.
THRIVEGulu currently works with over 1000 Thrivers in and around Gulu, Uganda. Many were abducted as children during the conflict to fight for the LRA. The conflict affected them in some way, including losing family members or being displaced from their homes.
Over 80% of Thrivers are women. Most have no more than primary school education. The average monthly household income is approximately $100, or just over $3 per day.
THRIVEGulu empowers survivors of violence in post-conflict northern Uganda to reclaim their dignity and heal the invisible wounds of psychological trauma through integrated, holistic services which address mental health, financial self-reliance, and multigenerational literacy.
