Northern Uganda has experienced significant instability in recent decades. CAFECC and PAD are extending the kingdom of heaven to the region. Since 2005, Christian Action for Empowering Church and Community (CAFECC) has offered great microfinance services in the form of savings and loans. They are offering what the people of northern Uganda want and need – a reliable, sustainable Christian source for addressing their financial needs and opportunities. CAFECC also operates a Demo Farm to enable them to better mitigate risks of lending to farmers and enhance food security in the area. PEERs in Action for Development (PAD) is PEER Servants’ newest Global Partner. The PAD leadership has a bright, compelling future for youth in Northern Uganda that will address their empowerment, education, and eventually healthcare.
