Hope foundation is Focus is on the incredibly tough choice faced by
young mums on whether to be a mother or not and the changes they face in
life thereafter. For girls who get pregnant in high school and also the
years right afterwards. It is not always easy to
tell what the next few months and years will look like, which is why Bertha Amuga came up.
with the idea of an NGO that counsels, educates and empowers teen-mums.
Being a mother changes a woman's life ordinarily — and being
exceptionally young is just more stressful because you have not had much
experience in life. It is all a learning experience.

and stigmatization labels from society. People can be cruel and the
lack of support from society puts you down and makes you feel ashamed of
being a parent, Amuga's Hope, is formed to empower the mums-to-be by
enabling them to secure a good future for themselves and their kids'
future. Also to provide medical counselling for family to avoid any
future mistakes; This NGO is about making its mark, and seeing a world
where everyone is being supported and respected especially teenage
mothers, who are the key beneficiaries of this project.
