Our Programs

Kibo Group is a faith-inspired nonprofit organization that partners with East Africans to pursue local solutions for poverty and injustice to help communities flourish.

We exist because we want people to be healthy in every aspect of their lives. Our international community of 22 staff members, 15 board members, thousands of people in Ugandan villages, and hundreds of donors work together to see the rural communities of Busoga thrive.

We accomplish our mission through 6 programs:

 
Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene WASH

Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH)

Our WASH staff cultivates dialogue with communities about sanitation and hygiene and helps them gain access to clean water. WASH partners with communities, empowers local leaders, and builds relationships with and within communities to help them sustainably lift themselves out of unhealthy living conditions.
