  • University Scholarships

    Exciting News of the year worth celebration Glory be to God
    CHALAPI-UG has secures 15 university degree scholarship to children of long term serving inmates and ex-prisoners to study in Algeria. The timely and critical scholarship is to benefit students who sat and passed science subjects at their advanced certificate of education between 2024 and 2025 but failed to pursue university education due to their vulnerability of parents being in prison or still copying with life after prison.
    This humbling opportunity has been offered through the office of the army commander Brig. Gen Muhindo Mawa who hails from kasese and has been following and inspired by CHALAPI-UG program initiatives. The scholarship is a Uganda- Algeria Bilateral Cooperation in Education. After our several engagements following this huge funded scholarship based on criteria and eligibility, only 15 beneficiaries qualified after the interviews.

    Your prayers for CHALAPI-UG will never be in vein.
    Many many thanks.

  • Pro-Bono Legal Services for Women

    Today 29th March 2026, teams of lawyers were dispatched to different cathedrals across Kasese District to speak about the pro-bono legal services that have been going on during this month and to close with a public legal clinic on Tuesday as kasese celebrates international women’s day after the main national celebrations that was held on 8th. So far 306 registered cases of women in conflict with the law, 55 already on trial remanded in prisons. Lawyers have committed to follow all these cases to conclusion as their contribution towards speeding up justice for women during March the month for women. Many thanks for the support that enabled teams move to the field registering cases, engaging state prosecutors, witnesses and other actors.

  • Carpentry and Vocational Skills Equipment

    We have viewed the carpentry and other vocational skills equipment being auctioned by Action For Community Development. The organisation top leadership is encouraging us to identify all that CHALAPI-UG would require and then put a figure of amount of money we can offer so they can discuss at the opening of Bids. Most of the equipment are still very sound.
    Our prayer that we can raise some money to at least pick some and not miss out on this opportunity to have our centre get more equipped to serve the community.
    I have informed chairman and has asked that meet him at his country home on Monday for further discussions over the same.
    Once again many thanks for every donation that has kept us reach out to our target beneficiaries.
    Blessings!

  • Justice for Women

    Access to Justice for women during March the month for women- offering Pro-bono legal services
    Following concerns over the growing number of female inmates on offences mainly linked to domestic violence and financial distress, there’s worsening congestion which is also undermining rehabilitation efforts. CHALAPI-UG has been requested by kasese female advocates to spearhead a campaign offering free legal services to women undergoing trial in the criminal justice system.
    We are humbly and kindly appealing for any financial assistance to facilitate the legal team with fuel to support movements to prisons, courts and also support documentation during this period.
    A cost worth uganda shillings 4.360.000 is estimated. The team is committed offering themselves registering cases and following to conclusion.
    Join us on this yet another important activity. Feel free to share this to friends.
    We can as well make it away to celebrate March through observance fostering greater awareness of woman’s rights that recognizes their contributions a cross sectors and call for actions to dismantle barriers to gender equality.
    Look forward to hearing from you dear brethren.
    Blessings!

  • Prison Monitoring

    I arrived in Kampala last night after two week of traversing the North districts of Uganda visiting 56 prisons monitoring the state of human rights focusing on political prisoners during this Uganda’s elections period. I was honored by Defend Defenders a big regional organization operating across African to join a team of 10 monitors that included officials from the Uganda Human rights Commission and Human Rights watch an international organization. Though only official cameras and telephones cleared by government were allowed for our documentary, the conditions are so alarming, prisons receive already tortured inmates with rotting wounds in severe agony. This morning we join the rest of the human rights actors to commemorate the international human rights day and at this dialogue some of the untold stories will be shared to find mitigation measures.
