OCONE Self-Help Project
At Our Community Needs Uganda (OCONE), we believe in sustainability and empowering communities to become self-reliant. Our Self-Help Project is designed to create income-generating activities that support our programs while providing skills and employment opportunities to the people of Bukedea District.
🌿 Why the Self-Help Project?
Many charitable initiatives depend on donor funding, which can be unpredictable. To ensure long-term sustainability, we have established community-based projects that generate income while addressing the pressing needs of the people we serve. These initiatives not only provide financial support for OCONE but also equip individuals with skills to improve their livelihoods.
