Project Description
TAORP was founded in Uganda with purpose of creating, coordinating and engaging a network of local citizens into a web of community development activities with purpose of and creating a pipeline of support for low-income poor children, youth and women.
Eastern central Uganda is a highly populated region with an estimated 6 million people. The area is characterized by very low demographic indices in terms of human development as a resulting inadequate of socials services relation to health and education, this furthered by household, youth, women and child poverty.
A recent research conducted 2011 by the ministry of gender and social development indicates the area as one of the poorest regions in Uganda, it’s much attributed to poor infrastructure, poor education, poverty and HIV/AIDS. It’s upon this back ground that The Aids Orphans Rescue Programme (TAORP) was founded to focus bring together like minded organizations, individuals and companies to join hands to uplift social welfare of majority youth, children and women through better education, health economic empowerment.
