My Nonprofit Reviews

I'm honored to be part of the ChlidVoice family! My family and I have visited the ChildVoice Lukome Center in northern Uganda twice, and both times we felt a sense of peace while also being energized. Peace from the well-designed restorative atmosphere of the Center, and energy from the commitment of the staff and dedication and joy of the girls. ChildVoice is a special organization filling a critical niche. They specialize in serving the most vulnerable population -- adolescent mothers who were victims of trauma, often sexual violence. Yet ChildVoice treats these girls not as victims in need of rescue but as the strong, independent, resilient, and creative survivors that they are. Their programs are designed to level the playing field, giving the girls the basic education, vocational training, and parenting skills they were deprived of because of their circumstances while at the same time providing psychosocial counseling to help them heal from their traumas. The staff display an awe-inspiring level of self-sacrificial love, many leaving their families for months at a time to live at the Lukome Center or one of the refugee settlements where ChildVoice serves. Being a part of ChildVoice's work is a blessing for me and my family.

To my knowledge ChildVoice is the only organization doing the kind of work they do in the places they do it. Helping the most vulnerable girls in the some of the most challenging, war-torn regions of the world. I had the opportunity to travel to Uganda with ChildVoice and was honored and inspired to meet the staff and girls they serve and to witness lives being changed firsthand.
