At Outreach Community Empowerment Resource (OCER) Uganda, we are deeply committed to providing essential support to those in need within our community. Our mission focuses on two fundamental human necessities: shelter and clothing. Join us in our efforts to provide warmth, safety, and dignity to every individual we serve.
Shelter Initiatives
Building Hope and Homes:
- OCER Uganda takes an active role in constructing and maintaining shelters for the homeless and displaced individuals in our community. Our collaboration with local construction firms and volunteers allows us to create safe, comfortable, and nurturing spaces that go beyond basic shelter needs.
Temporary Housing Solutions:
- Understanding the urgency of shelter during crises, OCER Uganda offers temporary housing solutions. We partner with local accommodations to provide immediate, safe, and secure housing for those in emergency situations.
Rent Assistance and Long-Term Housing Support:
- Stability begins with a secure place to live. Our rent assistance program aids individuals and families struggling with housing costs, preventing homelessness and encouraging long-term residential stability.
Advocacy for Affordable Housing:
- At OCER Uganda, we champion the cause of affordable housing. Our advocacy efforts are aimed at influencing policy and raising community awareness about the importance and need for affordable housing options.
Clothing Initiatives
Community Clothing Drives:
- Clothing is a basic human need that impacts comfort, confidence, and social integration. OCER Uganda regularly organizes clothing drives to collect and distribute garments, ensuring that all community members have access to essential clothing.
Collaboration with Local Businesses:
- We partner with local businesses to gather clothing donations. These contributions help us maintain a clothing bank that is accessible to our community members throughout the year.
