Victorious Children’s Ministries (VCM) is a Christian Community-Based Organization in Uganda. Located in the Kawanda Kaayi Zone, Wakiso DistrictWhat we do:
We work with families and individuals in the community together with sponsors, volunteers, and supporters to provide a safe, happy, loving family environment, health care, and education to the children. VCMU houses 15 children at the ministry supports another 33 vulnerable children in the community with food and school fees and provides an education to 100 children, ages 3-12 from poor families at CK Nursery & primary school.
