Awamu: Led by girls’ voices. Together we fight for their rights and freedom from male violence in Kampala’s most underserved communities. We offer education, skills and sexual reproductive health. They become leaders. We are a UK charity. Join us.
More good news for girls in Kampala ✨ We’re starting a new partnership with the Randall Charitable Foundation, alongside existing supporters, to expand respectful, girl-friendly sexual and reproductive healthcare - through drop-in clinics, outreach and training health workers so girls feel welcomed

I left school too young because my family had no money. It’s why I support girls with Awamu now - so they don’t lose their chance too.
Your donation is doubled this week. We need the full match to keep girls learning next year.
👉 could you chip in to help us reach our target? (link in comments)

From today until 9 December, every donation to Awamu’s girls’ education appeal is doubled by an anonymous donor.

👉 Donate: https://donate.biggive.org/campaign/a05WS000006HIpwYAG
Your support helps girls who have survived violence return to school

This is a genuinely eclectic, quality compilation that you don't see much of these days. From Senegalese kora to tuff breaks to masterful jazz to angular IDM. And Awamu are a fantastic charity run by lovely people.

Some news! We've donated a track to this excellent compilation. It's a previously unreleased live version of Absolute Unit, recorded back in 2022. You should go buy a copy, because @awamu.bsky.social is an incredibly brilliant charity doing amazing work.

We offer free childcare so child mothers can focus on learning, knowing their little ones are safe nearby.

One young mother told me: “I didn’t think anyone would accept me. Now I can learn, and my child is safe. I feel hope for our future.”

Proud to support girls to learn and thrive!

Thrilled to visit our partner school in Kawempe and see Kevin—once an Awamu student, now a teacher—guiding her class with passion!

She’s sparking interest in ICT and entrepreneurship, showing girls what's possible.

"I lift girls up through knowledge and belief, just as Awamu did for me."

🎉 Girls arrived today, eager to hear their DIT exam results - a milestone after six months of dedication. For many, school was never an option, but today, they proudly hold certificates proving their skills- equivalent to passing P7! These open doors to jobs, study & independence. 💛 Congratulations!
