Access for Life Uganda (AFLU) is a grassroots nonprofit organization supporting vulnerable teenage mothers and out-of-school girls in rural communities of Western Uganda. Many young women in these areas face poverty, early pregnancy, and limited opportunities for education or employment. AFLU was founded to restore hope and create practical pathways toward economic independence. Through mentorship, small business support, and community programs, AFLU empowers young women to rebuild their lives and provide for their children. The organization focuses on sustainable empowerment by supporting entrepreneurship, financial literacy, and safe community spaces where young mothers can grow, learn, and support each other.
