It all starts with love, it grows into a livelihood.

We stand beside women rebuilding their lives, teaching skills that pay the bills, protecting dignity and health, and letting children's laughter and dance lead the way to hope.

Why we exist

Every woman deserves a path, not just a handout.

Turikumwe means "we are together." We started in Kasangati with a simple belief: lasting change for women happens when love meets a marketable skill. Today we walk with women through vocational training, health support and safety, while their children find rhythm, confidence and joy in our dance troupe.

Portrait of a woman supported by Turikumwe's livelihood program
“

"Before Turikumwe, I had no way to feed my children. Now I run my own soap-making stall, my daughters have pads at school, and every festival I watch my son dance with the troupe, proud, safe, and full of hope."
